Computer Science Engineer by the University of Granada working as a Junior Cyber Security Evaluator at jtsec since January 2022 in projects related to LINCE certification processes. He had to resort to frequency overlaps due to upsampling, and he’s not quite sure how to compensate for that.

If you were to plot the spectrum of this signal, you would see one spike at the frequency of this sinusoid and a second spike at 0 Hz (DC). The hardware and software's open source nature has attracted hackers, amateur radio enthusiasts, and information security practitioners.

Reddit users [derekcz] and [Xerbot] used a HackRF module to listen in to the Falcon 9’s data transmissions during its latest launch. m repurposed satellite dish, the duo were able to intercept the radio transmissions from the in-flight rocket. The confusion was based on the fact that the MGA-81563 amplifier is advertised as a “14 dBm” amplifier, but that specifies its output power, not its amplification. HackRF One from Great Scott Gadgets is a Software Defined Radio peripheral capable of transmission or reception of radio signals from 1 MHz to 6 GHz.

I saw another device, much bigger though by another company, cost 2500USD and claimed it could tune in to those bands. Note for Windows build: You shall always execute hackrf-tools from Windows command shell and not from Cygwin or MinGW shell because on Cygwin/MinGW Ctrl+C is not managed correctly and especially for hackrf_transfer the Ctrl+C (abort) will not stop correctly and will corrupt the file. I've had it up and receiving commercial FM stations with gqrx and run some of the homework examples in an excellent SDR course on greatscottgadgets. Standard bundle includes HackRF, Ham It Up, Antenna Balun, 2 SMA interconnect cables and an SMA to BNC adapter. Key to working the weak signals, especially with a dynamic range limited by 8 and even 12 bits (In practice your true dynamic range is closer to 6 and 10 bits ….The HackRF One hardware design is actually full-duplex (at lower sample rates) from the USB connection through the ADC/DAC. In that video RocketGod will show how to install and use DragonOS, and how to install and use SDR Trunk which turns the HackRF into a police scanner. GNU Radio can be extremely complex and powerful, but in the video Matt shows some simple starter example flowgraphs like an LSB demodulator, and a simple wav file source transmitter for the HackRF. I’d sure like to ‘marry’ the two but since that’s likely not a realistic possibility I’ll probably end up getting both I have several homebrew HF SDR’s and a modified Delta 44 but it seems like every year there is less and less things on the HF bands that are interesting or useful. A. Petazzoni] recently put together a detailed blog post about installing and using MAYHEM on the HackRF/PortaPack, complete with a number of real-world examples that show off just a handful of possible applications for the project.
