Hello - I recently became interested in Software Defined Radios. I was
told GQRX was an excellent tool for running SDRs on a Mac. My experience
when installing software is to goto the App Store. When I went to the
GQRX website, they recommended using MacPorts.
I installed GQRX and it appeared to successfully run, however, it was
nowhere to be found on my computer. As a result, I did what was
recommended and ran:
sudo port clean GQRX
Which appeared to work.
When I tried to reinstall GQRX, I'm now getting an error message partway
through the installation. Here's the text from terminal.
xorg-libXrandr
