need step by step or a good webpage that explains it.  Do I need to install
pybombs?  I found this info below but perhaps it's incomplete?

I wrote some sample instructions on a GitHub issue a few days ago and I'm
waiting for them to be verified before we update the wiki.  If you'd like
to give them a try, they can be found here:
https://github.com/mossmann/hackrf/issues/253#issuecomment-215325327

These instructions use pybombs, which I'm not entirely happy with when it
comes to installing the packages globally (i.e. /usr/local) as it makes
some assumptions about the system which I am not sure are always valid.

Alternatively you could use Ubuntu or the GNURadio live distro (based on
Ubuntu) which make things a little simpler.  For example, Ubuntu still has
packages for hackrf, gnuradio and gqrx in the repositories; I have no idea
why Kali doesn't have them available to install.

Thanks,
