[Hackrf-dev] RX/TX switching

[Matteo Terzi]

Hi all,
In the end I decided to buy another hackRF One.
I'd like to use an hackrf to receive and the other one to simoultaneously
trasmit the signal received, using just one PC. Is it possible?
Then how can I visualize two different graphs of what I described before.
How could I sync the clock between the two devices (HW and SW)
Thanks

Matteo
