MacOS.png macOS Intel: Run macOS Radioconda installer (x86_64)
Apple Silicon: Run macOS Radioconda installer (aarch64)

Other Installation Methods

Platform-specific guides

Cross-platform guides

  • Conda install guide
  • PyBOMBS - Note: We are no longer including PyBOMBS as a recommended method of installing GNU Radio, unless you want to play around with old versions (e.g. GR 3.7, 3.8, and OOTs of matching version)

VMs and Live Images

Over the years a number of Live Images and VMs have been created. There are currently no official versions but here are some current options:

  • Instant GNU Radio A customizable, programmatically generated VM and live environment for GNU Radio.
  • UbuntuVM An Ubuntu 20.04 virtual machine image with GNU Radio 3.8.2.0, Fosphor, GQRX, and several other useful pieces of software. (Created using Instant GNU Radio)

OK, it's installed, what now?

If the installation worked without any trouble, you're ready to use GNU Radio! If you have no idea how to do that, the best place to start is with the Tutorials.

Optionally, you may run volk_profile on your terminal to help libvolk to determine the optimal kernels (may speed up GNU Radio).
