+<h1>HackRF input plugin</h1>
+
+<h2>Introduction</h2>
+
+This intput sample source plugin gets its samples from a [HackRF device](https://greatscottgadgets.com/hackrf/).
+
+<h2>Build</h2>
+
+The plugin will be built only if the [HackRF host library](https://github.com/mossmann/hackrf) is installed in your system. If you build it from source and install it in a custom location say: `/opt/install/libhackrf` you will have to add `-DLIBHACKRF_INCLUDE_DIR=/opt/install/libhackrf/include -DLIBHACKRF_LIBRARIES=/opt/install/libhackrf/lib/libhackrf.so` to the cmake command line.
+
+The HackRF Host library is also provided by many Linux distributions and is built in the SDRangel binary releases.
+
+<h2>Interface</h2>

+
+<h3>1: Common stream parameters</h3>
+
+![SDR Daemon FEC stream GUI](../../../doc/img/SDRdaemonFEC_plugin_01.png)
+
+<h4>1.1: Frequency</h4>
+
+This is the center frequency of reception in kHz.
+
+<h4>1.2: Start/Stop</h4>
+
+Device start / stop button. 
+
+  - Blue triangle icon: device is ready and can be started
+  - Green square icon: device is running and can be stopped
+  - Red square icon: an error occured. In the case the device was accidentally disconnected you may click on the icon, plug back in and start again.
+  
+Please note that HackRF is a half duplex device so if you have the Tx open in another tab you have to stop it first before starting the Rx for it to work properly. In a similar manner you should stop the Rx before resuming the Tx.
+
+The settings on Tx or Rx tab are reapplied on start so provided the half duplex is handled correctly as stated above these settings can be considered independent.
+
+<h4>1.3: Record</h4>
+
+Record baseband I/Q stream toggle button
+
+<h4>1.4: Baseband sample rate</h4>
+
+Baseband I/Q sample rate in kS/s. This is the device sample rate (4) divided by the decimation factor (6). 
+
+<h3>2: Local Oscillator correction</h3>
+
+Use this slider to adjust LO correction in ppm. It can be varied from -10.0 to 10.0 in 0.1 steps and is applied in software.
+
+<h3>3: Auto correction options</h3>
+
+These buttons control the local DSP auto correction options:
+
+  - **DC**: auto remove DC component
+  - **IQ**: auto make I/Q balance
+  
+<h3>4: Bias tee</h3>
+
+Use this checkbox to toggle the +5V power supply on the antenna connector.
+
+<h3>5:RF amp</h3>
+
+Use this checkbox to toggle the extra low noise amplifier (LNA). This gives an additional gain of 14 dB. 
+
+<h3>6: Device sample rate</h3>
+
+This is the HackRF device ADC sample rate in kS/s. Possible values are: 2400, 3200, 4800, 5600, 6400, 8000, 9600, 12800, 19200 kS/s. 
+
+<h3>7: Rx filter bandwidth</h3>
+
+This is the Rx filter bandwidth in kHz. Possible values are: 1750, 2500, 3500, 5000, 5500, 6000, 7000, 8000, 9000, 10000, 12000, 14000, 15000, 20000, 24000, 28000 kHz.
+
+<h3>8: Decimation factor</h3>
+
+The device stream from the HackRF is decimated to obtain the baseband stream. Possible values are:
+
+  - **1**: no decimation
+  - **2**: divide devcie stream sample rate by 2
+  - **4**: divide devcie stream sample rate by 4
+  - **8**: divide devcie stream sample rate by 8
+  - **16**: divide devcie stream sample rate by 16
+  - **32**: divide devcie stream sample rate by 32
+
+<h3>10: Internal LNA gain</h3>
+
+The LNA gain can be adjusted from 0 dB to 40 dB in 8 dB steps.
+
+<h3>11: Rx variable gain amplifier gain</h3>
+
+The Rx VGA gain can be adjusted from 0 dB to 62 dB in 2 dB steps.
