A bit surprised that HackRF wasn't even mentioned, never mind included, given that it is fairly popular. My understanding is that HackRF's noise figure isn't that great so maybe that is why, but that wouldn't jive with the inclusion of the RTL-SDR.

The document at hand evaluates the use of SDRs for satellite communications (including Low Earth Orbit signals). HackRF is an awesome product and project, no doubt about that. Personally I would suggest anyone interested in a benchtop SDR get a HackRF. It's a great open-hardware project.
