Who did you ship it back to? At this point I would like to ship back my
defective unit for a refund as well.

I shipped mine back, was DOA, at least got a refund but probably
won't get my customs fee back and paid for the return shipping. I
tried to contact Michael before i shipped it back but got only
<crickets> back.
Kind of disappointed with this, so i'm most likely going to save a
budget for the USRP B200 or B210. But this time i'll check reviews
and any issues first before throwing again money.
Anyway, thanks to the good people on this list who provided advise
/ troubleshooting tips, appreciated !

Thanks Doug for the informations,
I was waiting for a unit but I removed the order yesterday in
favour of a
hermes-lite, that is closer to my needs.
Now, after your quick review, I'm happy for my new choice.

Several people have complained with HackRF problems, worrying if
their
unit is defective.
I have the same worries. Mine clearly is nowhere near as good as
the DVB dongles. But it clearly works, no quibble. It works
both in
SDR#/Windows and Gnuradio/GRC/Ubuntu.
But it is plagued by spurious spikes of near-CW stuff
everywhere, even
up in the upper GHz areas where there should be essentially
nothing.
It sees Wi-Fi fine ... but covered by these spurious carriers.
And
many of them are DIFFERENT in SDR# and Gnuradio. And using both
they are dependant, both in amplitude and frequency, on the
gain settings at the low gain end as well as the high gain end.
That dependance at the low gain end implies to me that its is
incorrectly dithered or some software problem.
I bought it for the wide bandwidth for certain special purposes
and it serves those purposes OK even in the presence of the
garbage.
But for general use, its a plain, and expensive, joke.
