Trying to demodulate ADSB

Hi, I am trying to demodulate and decode ADSB frames to be able to see the data printed in the gnu radio terminal. I am receiving ADSB frames (confirmed both with the Kraken SDR waterfall at 1090 MHz, and the time sink in GNU Radio, I include a picture of the latter), but I do not understand why when enabling the block chain from the threshold block till the end, errors pop up with “Failed to put IQ Samples into the Queue”. If anyone was able to achieved the above mentioned, please, I would highly appreciate any help.

Regards,
John

  • The kraken is sampling at 2.4M, and the resampler leaves it at 2M.

  • The QT GUI Range if for the Time Sink to trigger.

  • The QT GUI Entry is for the ADS-B Framer to trigger.
