Hi

I was hoping that someone could make a palet for nodered of the rtl-sdr dongle for 433mhz etc  
The gitlab repo is here:

> **[merbanan/rtl\_433](https://github.com/merbanan/rtl_433)**
>
> Program to decode traffic from Devices that are broadcasting on 433.9 MHz like temperature sensors - merbanan/rtl\_433

Not this is really a thread for the #development channel, but never mind.  
there is an rtl\_power node on [flows.nodered.org](http://flows.nodered.org). At one point I did look at the whole rtl suite and rtl\_433 - but there are so many options (and the fact you have to compile/install the drivers outside of Node-RED makes it a pain to work out how to actually wrap up in a meaningful way. When I use it I just use either the exec node or node-red-node-daemon (for longer running) and make sure I use the `-F json` output flag to make it easy to parse the output.  
Or is there a basic use case that would make sense to wrap ?

Hi

I really liked the node-red-contrib-rfxcom and was hoping to get this for the RTL 433 dongle. If you think it isnt really something for nodered is follow-up your lead 🙂
