Mac Monterey Setup

I’ve been reviewing the other posts, (from 2020), and am stuck. I’ve installed rtf_sdr, I’ve installed CubicSDR (to test my hardware), I’ve installed Sox via MacPorts, but I get the following error:

~ % rtl_test -t                 
Found 1 device(s):
  0:  ezcap USB 2.0 DVB-T/DAB/FM dongle

Using device 0: ezcap USB 2.0 DVB-T/DAB/FM dongle
Failed to open rtlsdr device #0.

Any suggestions?

I should add, I have also installed CocoaRTLServer2dist and while it shows the following


I never get any signals on the map. Which I assume is based on the error in the above post.

Either your USB port is faulty, your SDR dongle is bad, or you don’t have the correct driver installed (if MacOS needs one.) Reboot your computer, plug the dongle in, then check if it’s listed in your USB devices.

I assume this is an equivalent to rtl_tcp. If you have that running, it will have claimed the dongle exclusively and other utilities such as rtl_test won’t work.

I have deleted the CocoaRTLServer and am still getting

Found 1 device(s):

I can use the SDR fine with CubicSDR for FM radio signals. I used to have the plug installed on a windows machine and could use FlightAware, so I know the device is working.

OK, I have run brew install rtl-sdr had to do some chown of directories for it to install. Reran rtl_test -t - same message. Then ran

sudo rtl_test -t

As you can see it seems to show. So next step is flight Cocoa1090 - got the following error:

You should never have to chown anything to get any software to install. Especially never chown any system-owned (root-owned) directories or you’ll hose your operating system.

Just FYI you’ll probably get better support for closed-source proprietary software like cocoa1090 by contacting the author or company who makes it. Macintosh macOS Mode S (ADS-B) aircraft transponder decoder or use an open-source program like dump1090-fa or readsb instead, assuming they can compile and run in OS X.

So even if the software would work, it wouldn’t receive much.
Bad tuner for ADS-B.

Thanks for all the tips, guess I am just going to use this radio to listen to FM Stations.
