Description

Is it possible to use fl2k (usb3 to vga chip fl2000) to send data? If not, this would be my request, as it is very affordable together with rtl-sdr.

Research direction
Examine urh's device abstraction layer (likely in src/urh/dev/ or similar) to understand how new devices are added. Research the fl2k (FL2000) chip's USB interface and data transfer capabilities. Look for existing documentation or code for fl2k in other projects. Consider reaching out to maintainer for guidance on acceptance criteria.
