If you are only going to receive, impedance is not critical. But txing is another story, impedances should be matched or you can blow up something. Although the hackrf has very little power and shouldn't have any problem dissipating reflected power from an impedance mismatch.
You should be looking for antennas tuned to the part of the spectrum you want to work with and consider what polarization (vertical, horizontal, RHCP/LHCP) and if you want directionality. 2014-09-11 7:50 GMT+02:00 Jeremy Young <[email protected]>: > The ant500 is a 50 ohm antenna, there are some DIY adsb antenna plans out > there, is it safe to use one of these with the hackrf? what do I need to > look out for when choosing antenna? > > Thanks > Jeremy > > _______________________________________________ > HackRF-dev mailing list > [email protected] > http://nine.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/hackrf-dev > >
