[Hackrf-dev] Run out of options to get HackRF One working :(

[ccrypti at nym.hush.com]

Hi Simon / All,

With the antenna using the rtl usb stick i can receive FM fine. I 
thought the ANT500 is better than the standard antenna which comes 
with most of those usb dongles ? I tested the continuity of the 
ANT500 which is good. Shield and antenna have none, but the inner 
pin and antenna have continuity.

Also i just installed the 2.3 beta which now displays the hackrf 
one as an option. But still no go on the usual FM frequencies, just 
noise or silence when selecting a peak. 

I bought also a few other antennas for specific ranges like 2.4 
Ghz. How can i use the 2.4 Ghz antenna to determine if the hackrf 
works ? I mean i can connect it and go to 2.4 Ghz, but what is a 
typical sound or view to know it is working as it should ?

Thanks,

Micky
