I would like to use my KrakenSDR primarily as a radio receiver (e.g., listening to broadcast Wide FM 88–108 MHz, as well as Narrow FM/AM in VHF/UHF). Could you please confirm the recommended setup and best practices?
If you have a quick-start guide, sample GQRX/SDR# profiles, or GNU Radio flowgraphs tailored for KrakenSDR as a radio receiver, I’d really appreciate them.

I think that you would be much better off using one of the inexpensive SDR radios on the market for about $35.
Buy RTL-SDR Dongles (RTL2832U)
You can just treat it as a 5x standard RTL-SDRs. Just opening one instance of SDR# for each tuner as needed.

Yep, a regular receiver radio can work fine for testing as long as the frequency range matches. I’d just make sure the antenna setup is decent too, since weak signals can make direction finding pretty inconsistent.
