Good write up Sam!

Love these write-ups, i have various 433mhz things around the home that i’ve integrated with home assistant. Probably the most useful is still a bbq thermometer with multiple probes.

Anyway i was going to post my favourite tool in this space https://github.com/jopohl/urh universal radio hacker just makes the process trivial, but i see the repo is marked archived now. Either way, the software is excellent.

I do not have a home so perhaps I do not fully understand. If it is warm when I go to bed, I turn on the ceiling fan by rotating the knob next to the bed. When I wake up, I turn it off. What kind of automation are you looking for?
