I'm working on that: http://greatscottgadgets.com/sdr

See also the new GNU Radio guided tutorials:

For big examples, typically without much explanation, see:

Unetbootin can be used to install the iso image onto a flash drive.  It
has a feature that allows persistent storage, but I haven't verified
that it works with that particular iso.

That is a difficult question to answer in a way that is useful to people
who don't have calibrated RF test equipment.  And even for those who do
have RF test equipment, I do not yet have enough data over very many
frequencies over many units to perform statistical analysis.  If this is
a project anyone wants to work on, please let me know.

More importantly, I would love to hear any ideas people have for
validating the RF performance of a single HackRF One without any test
equipment.

Thanks,
