# HackRF Pro

**Type:** Product page · **SKU:** GSG-HACKRF-PRO · **Brand:** [Great Scott Gadgets](https://core-electronics.com.au/brands/great-scott-gadgets-australia)
**Page:** https://core-electronics.com.au/great-scott-gadgets-hackrf-pro.html ([markdown](https://core-electronics.com.au/great-scott-gadgets-hackrf-pro.html.md))

A compact software-defined radio for experimentation across 100 KHz–6 GHz, with half‑duplex transmit and receive capabilities for radio signals.

## Pricing

- **Price:** $669.95 (inc GST) — $609.05 AUD, exc GST

## Availability & dispatch

- Available with a lead time — expect dispatch between Aug 28 and Sep 09.

## Restrictions

**For use in Australia**

- Operate only in bands and with settings that are permitted for your location and application. Check this product’s supported frequencies in the description/specs.
- If you intend to operate outside shared/licence‑exempt conditions (e.g. in other bands, at higher power, with high‑gain antennas, or extended duty cycles), you must have the appropriate authorisation.
 
**For use in other regions**

- Follow the spectrum rules for your country/region and select frequencies and settings accordingly.

A declaration of use will need to be submitted during checkout.

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=GSG-HACKRF-PRO:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/GSG-HACKRF-PRO:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

The HackRF Pro is the next evolution of the renowned open-source Software-Defined Radio (SDR) platform from Great Scott Gadgets. It is a wideband half-duplex transceiver that operates from 100 kHz to 6 GHz, capable of both transmitting and receiving radio signals for analysis, research, and development.

Compared to the previous revision, the HackRF One - the Pro offers many updates and improvements.

- A wider range and flatter frequency response.
- A USB-C High Speed Connector.
- More RAM and Flash for custom firmware.
 
### Features

- **Precision Timing Stability:** Maintain accurate frequency tuning without drift, even as the device warms up, thanks to the built-in 0.5 ppm Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator (TCXO).
- **Cleaner Signal Capture:** Analyse the spectrum without the interference of the DC offset spike found in previous models
- **Updated Logic Controller** now using a modern FPGA from a CPLD.
- **Modern Connectivity:** Connect easily to contemporary laptops and workstations via the updated USB-C interface, which manages both power and high-speed data transfer.
- **Versatile Sampling:** Adapt to various signal types with sample rates up to 20 Msps in standard mode, or push to 40 Msps using the new half-precision mode.
- **Wideband Coverage:** Experiment with everything from FM radio to GSM and WiFi signals with a massive operating range of 100 kHz to 6 GHz.
