Hi Mike,

I have attached the tar/zipped file of my scanner source. It includes a 
Makefile to build it and a shell script 'run_hackrf' that runs it how I usually 
do.

To explain the design a bit: There is a SignalSource class of which 
HackRFSource is a subclass. This class has the rx_callback method invoked by 
your library. It also has ThreadWorker method running on a separate thread 
which together with the callback implements a state machine with 3 states: 
Streaming, DoRetune, Done. The rx_callback queues the received samples if the 
state is Streaming and then it switches state to DoRetune. The ThreadWorker on 
state DoRetune does the retune, sets a counter to the number of packets to 
drop, and changes the state to Streaming. The rx_callback decrements the 
counter when the state is Streaming until it hits 0 and then enqueues the 
samples and repeat. It is the discard counter (m_dropPacketCount) that I had to 
increase from 1 until I hit the value where the spectrum looks OK. The state 
variable is implemented using std::atomic.

Even if you are not able to build/run it could you please take a look at the 
initialization, callback, and ThreadWorker methods to see if it is OK.

Thanks much for the help,

--Patrick
