How can I Test Airspy Sample rate on Ubuntu?

[pmaine]

The airspy website quickstart guide provides a way to test the max sample rate before packets are dropped. How can I make a similar test on an intel Ubuntu system?

I looked through the quick start guide but I'm not very sure I found the thing you were referring to. If you meant the command airspy_rx -r NUL -t 0 and its related steps, you can do the same on Linux by replacing NUL with /dev/null.

That worked! I did get an average of 10MSPS!
Thank you
