Create a subghz file from known data?
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?

New Guy: Outdoor Thermostat / automated fan start/stop.
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.

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

Problem trying to listen to a Honeywell doorbell (RF 868 Mhz) with RTL-433
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.

Receiving Weather Satellite Images Using SatDump
GOES sats are geostationary but the NOAA APT satellites are encircling the planet and you can pick them up. Old tutorial but still relevant, just use "noaa-apt" tool[0] instead of WXtoImg. https://www.rtl-sdr.com/rtl-sdr-tutorial-receiving-noaa-weat...

- Hi 2
- SDR# and NOAA Satellites
- Made a very simple 137 MHz dipole V antenna, made out of copper brazing rods and a terminal block and this is the first picture of NOAA 18 I got from it, also it picks up 250 MHz Satcom pirate transmissions rather well. Much better than my pa0rdt antenna which adds a bunch of noise!
-
Why the image is so small?
Sometimes WXtoIMG just discards parts of the recoding when the signal wasn't strong enough. In those cases I've had some luck running the recorded .wav file through noaa-apt to get the full image.

Images pulled with RTL-SDR antenna NOAA
so the NOAA_APT decoder link on your guide did not work properly, By chance did you mean this link https://noaa-apt.mbernardi.com.ar/?
-
At least as long as they're not using the dev container...
So far I only use it for noaa-apt program though.

WXtoImg not decoding images
Had this exact problem, the thing that I found is that GQRX records at the wrong sample rate, which WXtoImg can’t handle. However, https://noaa-apt.mbernardi.com.ar this utility did work for me. I’ll also note that WFM is the setting I use in GQRX, not AM

Does anyone know whats happening here?
You should try noaa-apt too, it usually gives better results for me.
