Hi Mike,
That's exactly what I was looking for, thanks.
However: I swapped out the USRP source for an osmocom source, and it
seems to be "mostly working" but the audio comes through like the
adults from the old Charlie Brown show from when I was a kid.
Instead of clearly-intelligible speech like I can hear through GQRX,
using gnuradio I can only get speech that sounds like "mwah mwah mwah
mwah"
Attached is a .png of my flowgraph, hope it's not too large for the
list (about 100kB).
Appreciate any advice anyone might have.

Nathan,
When I was refreshing my gnuradio awareness - I hesitate to use the
word "skills" :-) - I ran through the official tutorials and
modified them as needed to work with a usrp b210. On the page
https://udel.edu/~mm/gr/
about halfway down is the title "Gnuradio Official Tutorials" with
the link "Here are my versions" where you'll find nbfm.grc. It's
very simple, using filter/squelch/NBFM Receive block and runs here
on grc 3.8.2.0, a promising sign.
Hope it's useful,
Mike

Hello,
I am seeking a working NBFM receiver example, as the one on the
wiki[0] produces unintelligible output. I am confident that my
hardware is functioning properly because if I tune to the same
frequency (162.525 MHz ) in gqrx, I can hear the weather radio
broadcasts clearly. I am on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, running gnuradio
3.8.x with a HackRF One and a standard telescopic antenna.
I have reproduced [0] verbatim except with the following change:
Instead of a ZeroMQ source, I am using an osmocom source for my
hackrf.
I’ve also tried adapting the flowgraph from the “SDR with HackRF”
tutorial[1], which implements a wideband FM receiver in gnuradio,
but I wasn’t able to make it produce anything resembling speech
when I changed it to narrowband FM.
Additionally, I’ve tried a few NOAA weather radio flowgraphs found
online but most of what I’ve found either didn’t work or else was
for an older version of gnuradio and thus had errors that I wasn’t
able to work around since I am a gnuradio novice.
Can anyone recommend a working flowgraph for narrowband FM, ideally
something simple and working in gnuradio 3.8+?
Thanks,
Nathan
