What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded
A Go-based software-defined radio receiver that decodes Itron ERT smart meter transmissions in the 900MHz ISM band using an inexpensive rtl-sdr dongle. It lets users non-invasively record and analyze their household utility consumption data.
Use cases
- read my smart meter consumption with an rtl-sdr dongle
- decode Itron ERT SCM messages from a 900MHz meter
- log household utility usage data locally
- capture interval data messages from smart meters
- monitor my own gas or electric meter wirelessly
When to choose
- you have an rtl-sdr dongle and an Itron ERT-compatible smart meter
- you want a simple command-line receiver for SCM, SCM+, IDM, or NetIDM messages
- you want to self-host your own consumption data collection
When to avoid
- your meter uses a protocol other than Itron ERT
- you need a polished GUI or cloud dashboard rather than raw message output
- you lack an rtl-sdr receiver or rtl_tcp setup
