Best HackRF for the price
For Cirket HackRF One Clifford 2025 R10+
Not super knowledgeable about SDR in general but I've had lots of time with the RTLSDR V4 and Meshtastic device development and this Cirket board is real good.
Everything arrived in great condition with excellent packaging. Took a little less than 2 weeks to deliver to the US. The board worked right away while using it as a standalone HackRF device. I recently received the PortaPak modules to build this into one and it went together easily and functions great! No issues with the Amp and it also has USB-C instead of the micro usb like the others.
Now I don't have another HackRF to compare, but I can with the RTLSDR V4. The RTL seems to receive signals better, but that's by design as the HackRF is more for wide band transceiving. Although it's not far off at all which surprised me.
All in all, I would 100% recommend this for the price as nothing comes close. One thing to keep in mind is the two antenna ports on the bottom do not come soldered on, which is kinda nice if you don't need them anyway.
