What would you like to know?

Is there a way to have prevent Hackrf Pro transmitting in the 5 GHz wifi channels to not interfere with the 6 GHz channels ? Is there an additional setting the the Hackrf Pro that we are not taking into account?

The HackRF Pro Causes 6 GHz interference Hackrf running DFS interference FCC0 or FCC5 on 5GHz channel 100 (5500 MHz) causes 6GHz (channel 227) and using BE200 stations to disconnect. It appears the hackrf pro is causing some sort of interference / jamming on this 6GHz frequency. The hackrf one did not cause the 6GHz disconnect.

It was also verified verified on a different system with the following test cases:

hackrf-pro FCC0 on channel 100 (5500MHz) interferes with stations connected on channel 69e (6295MHz) - difference of 795MHz

hackrf-pro FCC0 on channel 104 (5520MHz) interferes with stations connected on channel 71e (6305MHz) - difference of 785MHz

hackrf-pro FCC0 on channel 173 (5865MHz) does not interfere with stations connected on channel 339 (6705MHz) - difference greater than 795MHz
