Mike,
Thanks for your reply. Also, thanks to the other people that seem to be
in the same boat as me. Maybe we non-technical users can get this
figured out yet.
I operate out of Windows, so I'm not even sure when/how to begin when it
comes to the latest version of libhackrf. I can also conclude without a
doubt that it is not an antenna issue, and I'm a complete train wreck
when it comes to understanding what you mean regarding unsigned vs.
signed samples. I am not sure how much of this if any applies to using
this device in a Windows environment.
Unfortunately, from what I can see, any documentation provided is 99%
Linux based and assumes that the end-user has the technical know-how to
accomplish these things. While I respect the abilities of such users
greatly, I'm not one of them. My intention was to use the hackRF as a
portable wide band receiver for scoping out narrow band FM signals and
being able to quickly tune to them using SDR# or SDR-Console.
I guess I need a "HackRF for Dummies" guide. It's either that or someone
will get a good deal on a "lightly used" one in the near future.
Thanks,
Scott

I have updated the HackRF One to the latest firmware and CPLD using
Pentoo. Both went without a hitch. I have not made any efforts to
crack the case to see if anything appears obvious, considering it
might void any warranty. I have not transmitted at all with it, nor
have I had it near any strong RF sources.
Check the antenna, and make sure you have the latest libhackrf and
libosmo and gr-osmo.
At some point in recent history the hackrf switched from unsigned to
signed samples; if your tools are the old version they'll screw things
up and your signal will look pretty dead.
