Real case: the default installer for GNUradio is called "pybombs". Last time I search for it, google tried to auto-correct to one of those bad terms:

PyBOMBS is probably the best way if you want to be able to handle out-of-tree modules. If you just want to play around with the built-in functions, using a prebuilt binary from a package repo is the easiest.

Listen to HD radio with a $30 RTL SDR dongle
15 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 5 Nov 2023

The code of nrsc5 (and my transmitter project, https://github.com/argilo/gr-nrsc5) would be the best source of information for the undocumented parts. I do have some private notes, but the useful information has already gone into the code.
How can I do this? Is there a tutorial video?
