Is my HackRF deaf? I am a ham radio hobbyist and I bought a HackRF One to enhance my deeper learning of SDR but also as a broadband RF source. To my dismay, installing the software has become days of learning Ubuntu basics and dealing with instructions that are at times outdated or nuanced towards a person with much more than basic Linux skills. So, I gave up on Ubuntu only because it was faster for me to install and test with Windows 7. My HackRF One (GreatScott) must have been a leftover as the firmware was dated 2014(August). I installed the latest version HackRF tools and updated the firmware to Feb 2017. I followed Mike's video tutorial for creating a basic GNU flow for FM and also installed SDR#. I have very strong FM broadcast stations in my area which I can easily demodulate with my Rigol Spectrum analyzer using the ANT500. However both with GNU and SDR# my HackRF appears deaf in FM broadcast mode. I read that a few years back there may have been some issues with cold solder joints on the HackRF pcb.... I have a lot of test equipment - from RF generators up to 2 GHz, etc but before I go that route is there something I am perhaps missing in my setup. Not sure where or what details to provide here without overloading my question further .
