@Lenny43 Maybe get in touch with @airspy as that is his/her/their code. I have an add on to make everyone’s life simpler: https://github.com/debsahu/hassio-rtlamr-addon

Please tell me the exact steps to do this project. I did everything in your Youtube video. Plus some AI help when I need help. I still can't get it to work.
