NAME

       rtl_biast - a tool for turning the RTL-SDR.com bias tee or any GPIO ON and OFF.

DESCRIPTION

       Uses a re-purposed DVB-T receiver as a software defined radio to receive and send I/Q data
       via TCP network to another demodulation, decoding or logging apllication. Written for  and
       incorporated into the osmocom rtl-sdr project.

       Much  software  is  available for the RTL2832. Most of the user-level packages rely on the
       librtlsdr library which comes as part of the rtl-sdr codebase. This codebase contains both
       the  library  itself  and  also  a number of command line tools such as rtl_test, rtl_sdr,
       rtl_tcp, and rtl_fm. These command line tools use the library to test for the existence of
       RTL2832 devices and to perform basic data transfer functions to and from the device.

       Because most of the RTL2832 devices are connected using USB, the librtlsdr library depends
       on the libusb library to communicate with the device.

USAGE

       Run this program on a machine with an rtl-sdr  supported  device  connected  and  it  will
       provide I/Q data to other applications via TCP/IP.
