Re: HackRF and osmcom

Hi Bruce - if you only have 1 HackRF One connected the computer, then you can just leave the "Device Arguments" blank.

Otherwise, take the last 8 characters of the serial number - not the entire serial number.

The HackRF seems to be running ok. I can pull information from it with no problem.

I am running Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS (Focal Fossa).

I don't know is this mailing list forwards screen shots but heer is my osmcom setup:

Thanks!!!!!
