HackRF/June 2016

Notes from June 2016 - getting the HackRF up and operational, in preparation for a ham shack, antenna, and Defcon.

I was running a MacBook Pro, OS X 10.11.4. The HackRF was running the 2014-08 firmware.

Instructions for using the HackRF via the Mac: HackRF/Mac

Instructions for using the HackRF via a VirtualBox (only if you have a beefy machine): HackRF/VirtualBox
