Thanks Mike, Have you experienced any blown RF amps due to overloading ? if so do you know what the specifics were that caused the failure?

The important thing to realize about safety of the RF amplifier is that frequency is irrelevant. The amplifier sees 6+ GHz of bandwidth regardless of what frequency the HackRF One is tuned to. If you are sitting right next to a powerful transmitter at 100 MHz, it doesn't matter if you tune to 100 MHz or 1 MHz or 6 GHz; the RF amplifier is affected the same way in all cases. I tried to make this clear in this video: http://greatscottgadgets.com/sdr/5 Mike _______________________________________________ HackRF-dev mailing list [email protected] https://pairlist9.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/hackrf-dev
