[Hackrf-dev] Amp On or Off

[Tom]

Hmm wouldn’t the RF amp be disabled if you’re not actually receiving and have selected the amp to be enabled?

What symptoms do you have now that the RF Amp is blown ?

Are you going to try fix the thing yourself ?

Tom,

 

The HackRF was connected to USB so was powered up and therefore was receiving. I had received a Meteor M-N2 weather satellite pass not long before this unfortunate incident so the RF amp would have been enabled. To receive Meteor at 137MHz I also use a masthead pre-amp which was also enabled.

 

Simon.

Sorry to hear that Simon,

 

Was the hackrf receiving anything when you keyed up the HF and if so was the RF Amp enabled on the hackrf?
