I received this device in record time - excellent job Bangood! That being said, I'm not that enthusiastic about the manufacturer. My device suffered from really poor QA - it came with a stuck rotary encoder and no amount of fiddling could make it work. The imediate impact was the inability to turn the device ON or OFF. I finally used a wide tip screwdriver to join the push switch contacts and thusly I could operate the device. Not a deal breaker, just a10 minutes job with a hot iron and a 1$ part to replace the old one. However, the old rotary encoder does not have a part number on it and the new one (EC11) I got has a different Pulse Per Rotation (PPR) setting so using it to get to a desired setting / value is .. challenging. For the firmware side, flashing Mayhem 1.4.4 WILLl result in a non-functional Portapack H2, though the HackRF itself will operate normally, if detached. The only version that works as of today is this fork of Mayhem, currently at V1.4.3. It can be used to unbrick the device too. https://github.com/jumbo77/portapackh2/releases/tag/FW3 Other than that, really cool gadget and I really enjoy using it with SDR## and GNU Radio. If, by any chance, I could get the correct part number for the original rotary encoder, or at least the correct PPR value, it would be awesome :)
