Enable/disable the Clock Output. + +Note 1 : In r9 Hackrf platform , due to our complex fw Architecture and usage of Si5351A , we have fixed the synthetized CLK out freq to 10Mhz. + +Note 2 : In all previous r1 to r8 Hackrf platforms , as we are using Si5351C, we do not have that limitation , and user can change the CLKOUT frequency between 4 kHz to 60000 kHz; press OK when the frequency is highlighted to select which digit position to modify and then use the encoder to scroll through the digit values.

So in that case , that signal is present always in the SMA CLK in connector , and you should better to not connect any other external signal generator there (unless you remove the Portapack from Hackrf) , because you may damage that Portapack TCXO clock IC). + 2. Enable/disable the Antenna Bias voltage. If enabled, ensure that all devices attached to the antenna connector can accept a DC bias voltage. + ## User Interface The UI interface setting for the following can be Enabled (tick) or Disabled (x) or selected value for the backlight timeout: * Backlight off after 5 seconds( default) or can be set to 5,15,30 seconds or 1,3,5,10 minutes.
