HackRF Gain sliders & LNA button

[vsboost]

Hi there,
Not really an issue but was wondering if its possible to include gain sliders and an lna button for the hackrf?
Cheers

Hey @vsboost ,
thanks for bringing this up. Just some questions for clarification:

1. Are we talking about three different sliders for the HackRF?:

• RF Gain
• IF Gain
• BB Gain

2. Do you know wheter the HackRF has some LNA functionality builtin? Otherwise I would implement it myself. I like the idea!

Sorry should have called it an "RF Amp" so the settings would be

RX
Slider for IF LNA gain 0-40db in 8db steps
Slider for Baseband VGA gain 0-62db in 2db steps
Button for RF amp 0db = OFF or 14db = ON

TX
Button for RF amp 0db = OFF or 14dB = ON
Slider for IF 0-47dB in 1 dB steps steps.

Hope that makes sense

Cheers

Thanks for clarifying this @vsboost . I think it makes sense to have more control over these HackRF parameters, so I will implement this soon.
