Here in VK-land, GSM is dying, if not already dead in many parts of the country. As such, RTLSDR calibration tools like kalibrate-rtl are not particularly helpful! However, thanks (mainly) to Telstra, we have a very wide coverage 4G (LTE) network on 'Band 28', which is in a good frequency range for use with a RTLSDR (Downlink band 758 – 803 MHz). LTE-Cell-Scanner provides the 'CellSearch' utility, which will search for LTE cells, and determine the RTLSDR's clock offset. This gist attempt to provide some sort of guide on getting CellSearch running under Raspbian.
