Hi,

I received the PCIeSDR card as part of the commercial version of the Amarisoft product. They mention the possibility of using the card in third-party projects using C API and the closed libsdr.so in the documentation.

I was looking for support of this card in FOSS projects GNU Radio and Osmocom stack. I haven’t found an implementation yet. I have found only mention from vijaya on this forum in this thread [Amarisoft SDR integration with OAI](https://discourse.myriadrf.org/t/amarisoft-sdr-integration-with-oai/2288) .

I have decided to implement simple support for this card in gr-osmosdr and osmo-trx.

My attempts can be found on the github in branches with the PCIeSDR prefix.

If someone knows about other projects supporting this card or is willing to help, please post in this thread.

Thanks MYRIAD RF for tolerant approach.
