4 Jan 2010   Emphasize this page is for OS X 10.4 only, also change gnuradio.org/trac to /redmine


To install GNU Radio on recent Mac hardware and operating systems, consult the Build Guide and Mac Install pages at the GNU Radio Wiki:

http://vps.gnuradio.org/redmine/wiki/gnuradio/BuildGuide,   MacInstall

These pages describe our installation of GNU Radio 3.0 and 3.1 with the USRP hardware on Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger (not 10.5 Leopard or 10.6 Snow Leopard) on PPC Macs (not Intel). They describe some quirks of using the GNU Radio GUI and USRP on older Macs.
