Advantages

Everybody, who orders this device knows, what it is good for... After having previous versions, incl. original GSG PortaPack, later some H2's now, I gave a try H4M R10C (Clifford Heath)... After two weeks of experience, I am happy with it. What else to say ?

Comment

If there would be an option w/o antennas, that would be my selection, as I have soooo many of them... On the other hand, LNA seems to be effective add-in.

Advantages

I am very satisfied with the product. I strongly recommend it.

Disadvantages

Not all units come with 2 jacks on the bottom soldered, I've attatched some pictures to prove that.

Comment

Overall it's an amazing device, well built and very responsive.

Thank you for your feedback and for sharing your experience! We're glad to hear you're very satisfied with the product and appreciate your recommendation. Regarding the jacks not being soldered on some units, you're absolutely right. The earlier version we sold came with those jacks unsoldered, which is why some customers may have received that variant. However, we’ve since updated the product to a newer version that includes the jacks pre-soldered, and we’ve also updated the photos to reflect this change for full transparency. Thanks again for your input, it helps us improve and ensures future customers get the best possible experience!

Great product, what makes a HackRF even more valuable.
I can recommend the PortaPack, so you can go portable and to alle the nice things HackRF can do, without the need of a computer.

Disadvantages

I had a problem with the PortaPack, but it was solved very correctly by SDRStore.
Remember only that they're very busy, so be patient and everything comes allright.

Advantages

Great addition for the HackRF One.
It gives many options, tools etc, without having a computer at hand.
Had a little bit problems with my Portapack but SDRSTORE solved it perfectily.
They're very busy, so be patient for there answers.
For the rest, I'm very happy with it :-)

Disadvantages

Only thing what is, for me, a minor is the dialwheel, it feels a bit "flimsy", and personaly I would prefer a dial knop instead of a wheel.

Comment

Good trustworthy shop to buy, with great service.

Advantages

Très bon rapport qualité/prix par rapport à d'autres sites marchands.
Service client de qualité !

Disadvantages

Une visse un peu abîmée, manque de serrage du côté de la visse abîmée (détails).
Un manuel d'utilisation serait bienvenu pour les débutants comme moi !

Comment

Très satisfait de cet achat, délai de livraison standard, effectuée par l'entreprise de distribution nationale et non une entreprise quelconque.

Petite question :
D'après mes recherches, un chargeur 5.0v 2.0A est recommandé, peut-on utiliser un chargeur plus puissant comme 5.0v 3.0A ou rapide 5.0-20.0v 6.2-3.25A sans risque pour l'appareil ?

Cordialement.

Bonjour, Merci beaucoup pour votre retour détaillé et positif ! Nous sommes ravis que vous soyez satisfait de votre achat et de notre service client. Nous prenons note de vos suggestions concernant la vis et le manuel d’utilisation, et nous allons les étudier pour améliorer l’expérience de nos clients débutants. Concernant votre question sur le chargeur : nous recommandons d’utiliser uniquement le câble fourni avec l’appareil. Celui-ci permet déjà une charge rapide, et nous ne pouvons pas garantir la sécurité ou la compatibilité avec d’autres chargeurs, même plus puissants ou rapides. Merci encore pour votre confiance et vos remarques précieuses ! Cordialement, The SDRstore Team

Preflashed with Mayhem was super helpful, didn’t have to mess around with anything. It just booted up and was ready. The UI is pretty slick too. Definitely a step up from the older ones I’ve used.

Comment

Love messing around with this thing. It’s kinda addicting honestly. The build feels solid, screen’s nice, and it picks up a ton. Took a star off for the learning curve but once you figure it out it’s a beast.

I am currently experimenting with the ads-b function and I can say it works really well. I tested it against flightradar24 and I was picking up planes from 400+ km away which was pretty insane for only a small antenna. I haven't yet tested other functions but will do. I can definitely say its a good product.

Just received my package. Everything seems to be fine the only concern I have is how do I turn off the device? There are 2 buttons on top of the device but I don't know what they do but they don't turn it off.

Comment

I am just in love of how those devices look and feel. I wanted to get started in the sdr world for a while now but didn't know with what product to start. I chose this hackrf h2 and it didn't disappoint one bit! It feels amazing in hand and fits in almost anything. Also the customer support was very helpful and replied very fast to my questions. I recommend this device to anyone who is just starting getting into the sdr world!!
