Have you tried setting headers to specify the encoding? Have you tried setting the HTTP request to return a buffer then feed it I to an iconv node? Did you search the forum - for example: [Read windows-1250 encoded data - #4 by TotallyInformation](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/read-windows-1250-encoded-data/25265/4)
