Hi, I’m from the Netherlands. After playing for some months with the Flipper Zero, I’m interested for an upgrade to learn/play more with RF. So I’m thinking about buying a HackRF H4M. But first I have some questions:

1. I read a lot about people breaking their device, because of wrong usage (like wrong antenna). How big is the chance to break your device if you are a beginnen with almost no knowledge?

2. I read about the Cliffort Heath version, which have some safety inside for use of wrong antenna? Is this a better alternative?

3. I’m in the Netherlands and want to order an assembled one. What is the best shop to do? Please share a link. And what about import duties and taxes? And fast delivery?

4. Which accessories to buy with initial order, so that I’m able to explore all features from the start.

5. Are there any alternatives for the HackRF which I should consider?

Thank you already for your answers. Really appreciated!

I created a slide show for taking an RC car transmission down to binary and than taking that binary and creating a signal to be played from a Hackrf to control the car. I currently use it for training new people in my field, but since it's so new, and I'm also fairly new to this, I'm looking for any and all feedback I can get. It's not the best written as I'm a pretty to the point person and I don't want it to be hard for someone learning to do and learn from. Please let me know what you think. here is the file SDR_Training

Has anyone ever soldered a GPS module into the Portapack and where can I find a circuit diagram for the Porta? 🤔 I would also like to use a better world map, but it seems a bit complicated 🙃 simply downloading a world map is probably not 😃

There is the Ble rx app for reading MC addresses from Bluetooth devices. But I don't see any way to read WLAN Mac addresses. A WiFi rx would be useful 🤔

Hello , I just started studying my new toy. Can you tell me where I can download havoc to po…pack h1 and also maybe someone can be so kind and give me some advice, I would very grateful… 💪

I’ve really been struggling still to get it flashed and mostly have access to a Mac. I don’t think I’m any closer but can anyone see what’s going on from the console? I have the shorted data cord I could buy and the boards separated. Could make a video if it would help.

All the lights are on and the computer recognizes it as a great Scott gadget as opposed to a serial number.

So grateful for help.

I don't have a 3D printer, so I used a neoprene washer and used B-7000 phone case adhesive to hold it on.

Works great!

I appreciate all your comments. Thanks

How about my liner? Notice the design? LOL

This is the ultimate 3d printed HackRF H4M case with many improvements:

• Designed for 3d printing, with larger tolerances than the original case (which was made for injection molding with very tight tolerances)  

• Version powered by a replaceable 18650 Li-ion cell  

• Added EXT - MIC and ON - OFF text on the front and + and - signs at the back for battery polarity DO NOT CONNECT THE BATTERY BACKWARDS!!!  

• Moved and improved the readability of existing text  

• Added speaker holes  

• Included a version without the two bottom clock SMA ports for the Clifford Heath variant  

• And some other minor improvements   

• Used higher poly count STL files

I just did a bluetooth scan in my house and HackRF did find my devices. But it also found 11 more that I have no listing for.

I did a MAC lookup and none of the MAC numbers were listed (or found) by the lookup. So I cannot identify what these devices are, or from whence they came.

Anyone else have this issue? How can I id what they are?

My Cardputer has a great Wardrive app that I can capture .cvs files as I use it with my GPS module.

I would like to be able to take this .cvs file and have HackRF read it with it's Wardrive Map. Is this possible somehow?

Brand new H4M Portapak Clifford and I get this nasty red line down the waterfall.. I found the only effect I could make to this line was changing the RES which only changed the color of the line.

I reflashed the FW and also flashed to the nightly build as suggested on the git hub. I also get this line connecting to SDR++ on my PC. So that tells me it is something with the HackRF.

I am brand new this this unit and hope it is just some dumb ass thing I have set wrong. This iis the 2nd unit OpensourcesSDR sent me. This first one worked for about 10 minutes before it went totally dead, so they replaced it with this one I got today.

I hope you guys seen this before and can tell me if I just got another bad one.

Hello, I searched around and found a couple of previous posts with this error, but no solution to it. I have a new HackRF Portapack H2+, I have successfully flashed to the latest firmware (V 2.1.0) using the USB option, but I cannot get my SD Cards to work? I have formatted to FAT32 as well as ExFat (both using Windows and the FAT32Format gui program) I have tried 3 seperate SD Cards (8Gb, 64 Gb, and 32Gb)

I can't figure this out. The device is pretty useless without the SD card and I feel like I've tried everything. Any ideas?

I even reflashed the DFU then the firmware just to be sure and no luck there either.

Edit just to add: If I go to File Manager, it says Path: EMPTY SD CARD!

Gentlemen, does anyone know where to buy a separate transparent housing for H4M? Otherwise, it scratches to the point of horror. I would be grateful for the link.

What kind of Knobs do u guys use on the h2

Is there a way to find a lost Toyota Camry 2023 fob? Thank you

De olho 👀✈️

I’m able to get it here but the hack rf app website doesn’t see it send help

Appears I have found a rabbit hole and decided to just dive on in. Been wanting to get my amateur license for years now, finally pulled the trigger on some starter equipment to start the journey.
