Saying the "Ham band" is a slightly generic term, since there are several bands throughout the spectrum.
USA Ham bands are based on FCC 97.313. Going strictly by the specs the HackRF will not cover four of the bands, the 160 meter band (1.8 Mhz), the 80 meter band (3.5 Mhz), the 60 meter band (5.3 Mhz) and the 40 meter band (7 Mhz). I haven't checked my HackRF to see where the "real" roll off points are, but it should start effectively working on the 30 meter band (10.1 Mhz) and continue all they way through 5.925 Ghz. However, the HamItUp will allow you to shift those four bands up by 100 Mhz so you can receive them (1.8 Mhz is now 101.8 Mhz, 3.5 Mhz is now 103.5 Mhz, etc.) This in no way minimizes the need for an appropriate length antenna which can be quite long. http://www.hamqsl.com/Hambands_color.pdf On Fri, Sep 12, 2014 at 4:00 AM, Stefano Probst <send...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > because the HAM band, at least in Austria, gets from 135,7kHz up to 250 > GHz.
