[Hackrf-dev] Issues using Hackrf one

[kavya at tenettech.com]

Hii

I am new to Hackrf. I am trying to use Hackrf One unit to receive a FM 
station using GNU Radio. However I have not yet received the ANT500 
antenna. so I am using a vert2450 antenna which i was using with USRP 
devices.

1. I am able to run the GRC without any error. the same grc (replacing 
osmocom source with rtl-2832 source), i am able to receive a clear audio 
from the local fm station. But when experimenting with hackrf, i could 
hear only noise. Is this due to antenna which i am using?
  should i use ANT500 antenna only?

2.I have not updated the firmware. so should i update it to do this 
experiment.

Please help me out.

best Regards
