To uninstall it (and avoid automatically loading it), do the following: Not sure what the Linux kernel driver is actually any good for anyway. It appears that the MSI2500 SDR is not usable with the default Linux kernel driver. The thing that worked best for me, is the libmiri package by f4exb, together with SDR software sdrangel (also by f4exb) there are msi2500 and msi101 kernel drivers, generally it seems you should not use them.This thing seems to be semi-supported by Linux: Has a stable and accurate oscillator (TCXO), compared to (for example) the rtl-sdr.Samples radio at up to 8 MHz (?) and 12-bits.USB-C interface to computer (USB high speed?).5 separate SMA inputs for 5 different frequency bands.This device has the following properties: sdrangel works with it, but often crashes randomly (that might just be sdrangel instability).dump1090, doesn't work, in fact there is no input for signals > 1 GHz on my receiver.rtl_433, should be supported through soapy, have not yet seen a single decode.many tools that work out-of-the-box for rtl-sdr simply don't work with this dongle, for example.

drivers are not very mature, there are so many to choose from but it appears there's not a single good one that 'just works' (TM).On this page, I'm documenting how to get it to work effectively under Linux.Īlthough this thing seems technically superior to the well-known rtl-sdr dongle, in fact my personal experience with it has been 'meh' so far: It is in some places also referred to as BG7YZF. This page is about an inexpensive SDR with MSI2500/MS101 chip, basically a chinese clone of the SDRPlay RSP1.
