To upgrade to this release, you must update libhackrf and hackrf-tools on your host computer. You must also update firmware on your HackRF.
Major changes in this release include:
- CPLD bitstreams are now included in and loaded automatically by the firmware. There is no longer a need to update the CPLD separately.
- The clock output (CLKOUT) is now turned off by default.
- A new utility, hackrf_clock, provides a way to inspect and modify configuration of hardware clocks, including turning on and off CLKOUT.
- The rad1o badge is now supported by firmware in this release. Firmware from the HackRF release/repository is different than the original CCCamp firmware and only supports operation as a USB SDR peripheral.
- When using a HackRF One with a PortaPack in "HackRF Mode" (operating as a USB peripheral), the PortaPack display now indicates operational status and settings.
There have been many more enhancements and bug fixes. For a full list of changes, see the git log.
