Not a stupid question at all. > Is there a peak find/hold function? hackrf_sweep is the backend, while there are multiple frontend pieces of software. I believe that some of them have peak hold and some (e.g. QSpectrumAnalyzer) show a waterfall plot that could be used to answer the question of which frequency a devices is transmitting on. > That may, if the span is narrow enough to eliminate strong signals of no interest, be what is sought after. > > Then, perhaps, one could write a simple block, that tied into the peak find, that would set the RBW to an appropriate value dependent on frequency?

So I don't know the real value of the signal (2Hz or 40GHz). Is the hackrf able to set itself on the right value of frequency and let me know the result by means of a graphic.
