yes, I have a HackRF (jawbreaker) here, it works well. The various parameters are specified in the "--args" and "--gains" options, such as

Code:
./rx.py --args 'hackrf'  -g 65 -f 412.34e6 -N  'RF:14,IF:32,BB:26'  ... other options ...

AFAIK, the standard OP25 install.sh process should auto-install the needed package "libhackrf-dev" ... You probably also want the "hackrf" package which contains utilities.

As far as I recall it was necessary to flash the hackrf to the then-current microcode levels - perhaps that's now unnecessary with the hrf-1. That part of the setup is pretty much outside OP25's bailiwick........

The device runs at a sample rate of 8 MHz which is some 3x-4x faster than the RTL - so it might not work as well with some underpowered.
CPUs...

Try the -g 65 but I don't think it works. My working command line is.... ./rx.py --args hackrf -f 771.11875e6 -N RF:14,IF:32,BB:36 -S 2400000 -2 -V -n -v 5 -q -4 -w -U -o55e3 2>stderr.2 This is for a phase2 system. And I don't think you really need the RF:14, can try RF:0
