[Hackrf-dev] HackRF and Spyverter

[ALEJANDRO RAMIRO MUNOZ]

Hey all!

I'm writing this e-mail because I'm using HackRF-One SDR as a spectrum
analyzer in a university project.

I'm also using a Spyverter converter (https://airspy.com/spyverter-r2/) and
I'm having troubles to configure correctly the device, since I'm not very
familiar with it.

I'm interested in detecting with the HackRF-One a signal which is at 457
KHz (out off the range of operation), therefore I need the Spyverter to
achieve it, but I'm not able to configure it.

If you have some experience with this device used with a HackRF, or there's
any website I can get some information about how to configurate it, I'll
apreciate it a lot.

Thank you very much in advance,
Kindest regards,

Alejandro Ramiro.

Alejandro,
The Spyverter will shift the 457kHz signal up by 120 MHz, so the result will be 120.457 MHz. Connect your 457kHz signal to the input of the Spyverter; connect the output of the Spyverter to the rf input of the hackrf. Remember to apply 5Vdc to the Spyverter (make sure you use a linear power supply, or a battery pack, because a switch mode supply will be very noisy). You can use gnuradio companion (or numerous other programs) to show the spectrum.

anyone knows if Spyverter can be used in oposite direction (to transmit a
signal on 120,918Mhz and have it output on 918khz) because HackRF is realy
weak on theese low frequencies so if it could put a solid 15dbm below 10Mhz
it would be great
but I am afraid to damage my Spyverter if I try this
PS: Can I uses bias tee from HackRF to power my Spyverter?
