For people interested in other SDR options, I believe these guys were YC funded: Per Vices, http://www.pervices.com/ http://www.pervices.com/ Their hardware is significantly meatier, supporting frequencies from 100kHz to 4GHz with a bandwith of 250MHz. The HackRF only has a bandwith of 20MHz, and bottoms out at 30MHz. I haven't heard much from them, or discussion about them, but they are out there.

It's also almost $900, and PCIe (not USB), and doesn't look very portable at all: http://www.pervices.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=49 http://www.pervices.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product... At that price point you might as well start looking at USRPs.

  They are very different. If you are looking for something that you can run from a USB cable, this could be the perfect tool. Someone called this the Bus Pirate of RF and I think its a great way to describe this tool. The SDRs from Per Vices are geared towards low latency and high bandwidth. You can't squeeze 4x PCIe bandwidth into a USB cable. Neither can you get sub microsecond latencies. You can't get this over an ethernet connection either. This is the application where the Per Vices SDRs come out as clear winners.
