DESCRIPTION

The HackRF project started by Michael Ossmann and Jared Boone to build software radio peripheral using Free Software and Free Hardware design. Care was taken to only use electronic components with published documentation (no NDAs!) and to avoid software libraries without open source licenses.

Jawbreaker is the first complete HackRF platform, a wideband software radio transceiver with a USB interface.

This application lets the user receive data from RF and transmit data to RF.
