[Hackrf-dev] Broken hackrf one

[Andrew Onyshchuk]

Dominic,

Not after firmware update - I was using the same firmware (some git master
from 6 months ago) for some time.
2018.01.1 is the result of trying different firmwares after it got broken.

I think(not sure though) I left hackrf connected(but not in rx/tx mode) to
my macbook air on that night (for about 14 hours).
Could that have something to do with it?

Also I remember I heard some high freq noise from the hackrf (after running
hackrf_transfer) when I first discovered it was broken.

Thanks,
Andrew
