Introduction
Uli would like to do smart home stuff without having to buy proprietary, expensive, insecure devices from datahungry, privacy-ingorant and profitmaximizing companies. Therefore he is looking for alternative open source "smart home"/"IoT" solutions such as [FHEM] [openHAB] or [Homegear]. Also he already has some smart meters installed in his flat from the energy billing company [Ista] who use the TI CC1101 in their metering devices. Reading the emitted radio signals from these (or similar) devices might be the first step to get a data source and therefore an overview of water, electricity and heating consumption in an open source smart home environment.
