Alternately, in theory it's possible to add something like a USB-CDC serial port emulation to the hackrf firmware, and provide a communication channel that way. In general, though, the usefulness would be very limited - I don't think you could stream a block of serial data as quickly as you need to, compared to doing a bulk write or read... which is why the hackrf firmware is designed how it is in the first place. -m --
