Monitoring some power/gas/water meters via an RTL-SDR

Yeah in one house here repurposed in place telephone cables way back. I also used the old telephone lines for Homeseer Speaker with HS version 1.
Worked great.
The cost of cable and 1-wire temperature sensors is way low compared to purchasing wired or wireless sensors.
My Leviton Omni Pro temperature sensors are around $50 each.
I was an avid xAP user and combined the two technologies for a very long time.
I am currently combining many functions on the 1-wire hub in the attic. IE: it is a ZWave device and now an SDR radio device.
I can mini this and single purpose the 1-wire hub to an Arduinio these days.Last edited by Pete; January 26, 2018, 06:59 AM.- Pete

This morning had a new radio installed on my sensus water meter.
The box is probably 1/2 the size of the telco box. I wrote down everything on the module and what was on the box.
It is using Flexnet 2W which is a two way private network.
Well it looks to be running at 1 Watt and may go to a repeater.

@Aldo,
The radio is new and I have no clue about it yet.
Looks maybe to be a private channel GSM/LTE connection?
The installer mentioned that the meters can be read at the water department (which is a few miles away).
Way long time ago added two water meters for my own reads here using a dual 1-wire counter.
To validate the numbers you see you just need to do a bucket test.- Pete
