dump1090 VS rtl_433

It's not his first radio software. Almost a decade ago he wrote the rtl-sdr ADS-B software dump1090 https://github.com/antirez/dump1090 . It was much easier to set up and use than prior GNU Radio (c++/python) + Virtual Radar (java) options. It went on to be forked and improved upon and it now the community standard.

dump1090 shows them on Google Maps IIRC.

dump1090

hi again and thanks for the help I appreciate it. I was actually looking at https://github.com/antirez/dump1090 but I'll give the one you linked a go instead because the other one hasn't been updated in years which could be part of the problem.

I've not moved onto this platform for SDR yet, but adding dump1090 for ADS-B (aircraft locations)

And there's a multiformat receiver block too: https://github.com/merbanan/rtl_433

pi@pi4b8:/etc/systemd/system $ cat rtl_433.service # based on https://github.com/merbanan/rtl_433/issues/1651 [Unit] Description=RTL_433 service script StartLimitIntervalSec=5 Documentation=https://github.com/merbanan/rtl_433/README.md After=syslog.target network.target [Service] Type=exec ExecStart=/usr/bin/rtl_433 -C si -F mqtt # Restart script if stopped Restart=always # Wait 30s before restart RestartSec=30s # Tag things in the log # View with: sudo journalctl -f -u rtl_433 -o cat SyslogIdentifier=rtl_433 StandardOutput=syslog StandardError=syslog [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target

For example, rtl_433 has the spec for an X10 sensor say I know what data I want to put where, is there some tool/site I could enter in what the "specifications" of the signal waveform are and the data I want to send as a byte-string or binary-string and it would create a playable .sub file for me?

For "outdoor distances" I'd probably stick to something LoRa or 433MHz based. YoLink has quite a few options using the LoRa protocol. I use basic 433Mhz based AcuRite sensors paired with an RTL-SDR dongle connected to a machine running RTL_433, and use Home Assistant to trigger automations and alerts.

866-868MHz is SRD/ISM band (in UK/EU). Can be things like energy meters, TPMS, medical devices etc. Try rtl_433 on it.

I'm trying to add a Honeywell doorbell to Home Assistant by using the RTL-433 GitHub project/program. When I run the program the SDR dongle is detected but it doesn't display anything when I press the doorbell (the image shows what I see after running the program and pressing the doorbell). I have also tried Honeywell Activelink (FSK) aka [116], so I have tried both 115 and 116 decode protocols.
