Residential water meter - Community feedback is welcome
It's possible you do not even need a meter. You can often read the utilities meter https://github.com/wmbusmeters/wmbusmeters

Waterlink smart meters
The smartmeters installed by Waterlink in Flanders are Kamstrup Multical 21 and they broadcast every 96 seconds a wireless M-BUS message (on 868 MHz) with the latest data. It's easy enough to receive the messages thanks to wmbusmeters (and those of my neighbours, as well as messages from gas meters) but of course (and thankfully) they are encrypted. Users in Norway (or Sweden? I'm not sure anymore) seem to receive the ".kem" file corresponding to their meter that allows them to decrypt messages.

Listen to HD radio with a $30 RTL SDR dongle
There's an issue open for this: https://github.com/gqrx-sdr/gqrx/issues/1104
I could really use some help from a software build expert. Gqrx and all its dependencies would need to be built in CI with Apple silicon support, and I don't know how to do that.

WebSDR – internet connected Software-Defined Radios
If you don't need the web interface and your usual desktop SDR software supports rtl-sdr tcp mode, you can easily set up a small board that calls rtl-sdr with the appropriate parameters so that it will wait for a remote connection from the above software, not unlike what happens with WebSDR, but you would be using your usual desktop SDR application which would be native and much more snappy than a web browser. Here's an example using gqrx.

SDR and software for Mac
GQRX works pretty well for me. There is also CubicSDR and SDRAngel afaik - you might just want to play around with them and see which you are most comfortable with.

Just got an RTL-SDR, what kind of fun stuff can I do with it?
SSB/CW (also (W/N)FM/AM/Raw) using GQRX

what kind of device could I listen to 900mhz radiowave transmissions? I want them very specific like 943.147mhz
For most signals (including analog AM and FM modes) you can use a laptop with an RTL-SDR USB dongle (fairly cheap), or another SDR, and a reasonably tuned antenna. Various RTL-SDR models can tune from around 500 kHz up to 1.75 GHz with 3 mhz of bandwdith, and works with free software like SDR# for Windows and GQRX for Linux. It works with lots of other software, too, for ham modes, digital modes, etc.

Crossfire low range?? RX Loss & RSSI DBM?? Beeps??
Some of the Crossfire modules have a rudimentary spectrum analyzer function on them that might help you identify if there are other devices operating in the 900MHz band around that area, but I'm not sure the nano TX is one of them. I have a couple RTL-SDR dongles or equivalent I'd use with GQRX as a cheap spectrum analyzer if possible.

Good old GQRX for me https://gqrx.dk/

Looking for a good AM/FM Radio sollution
There is loads of software that will work such as SDR++, GQRX, CubicSDR, and SDRangel just to name a few. For HD radio reception, there is nrsc5. Nrsc5 only works with an rtl-sdr, so you will need one if you want to receive HD radio.
- Help\ideas for base station, some guidance needed
What are some alternatives?
When comparing wmbusmeters and gqrx you can also consider the following projects:
sdrangel - SDR Rx/Tx software for Airspy, Airspy HF+, BladeRF, HackRF, LimeSDR, PlutoSDR, RTL-SDR, SDRplay RSP1 and FunCube
