New HackRF Pro not TX'ing #1782

Description

@eimann

What outcome were you hoping for?

Hi,

I'm trying to TX with a HackRF Pro, I tried 20, 80, 800 MHz over a 50m antenna cable connected to a One.
When I TX on the One, the Pro receives it fine, when I do it the other way, the One doesn't receive the TX.

My Pro looks like this:
