I strongly recommend using the HackRF_One tag of the dump1090_sdrplus,
which can be found here:
https://github.com/itemir/dump1090_sdrplus/releases/tag/HackRF_One

hackrf_transfer uses signed bytes, dump1090 uses unsigned bytes.  You can
use a tool such as sox to convert between them, as described here:
