BladeRF 2.0 Micro full duplex in GNURadio

[yakovdk]

I'm using the SoapySDR BladeRF source/sink in a GNURadio flowgraph. Starting the flowgraph, it opens the sink just fine, but exits with an error about permission denied and being unable to open the device for the source:

Code: Select all

What is the magic trick to get GNURadio to use the BladeRF in full duplex (in Windows here)?
