Hmm, at 1 W a VSWR over 1.22:1 may smoke the RF amplifier on the HackRF
- assuming roughly a 10 mW reflection smokes it - and ignoring all the
losses in the system.

How about low power amplifiers (100-500 mW) - with a maximum RF_IN of at
least 20 dBm?

How about low power band pass filters - with a maximum RF_IN of at least
20 dBm for the HackRF, Ubertooth and Yardstick?
