📡 SMAKN RXB6 433Mhz Superheterodyne Wireless Receiver Module: Advanced Connectivity Solution Review

I bought this item to communicate between Arduino and the Accurite Wireless Temperature/Humidity Sensor. Initially I had connection problems, but that was due to the antenna cable used. I unsoldered the helical antenna from an old console that runs on the same frequency and soldered it to this board and I have no communication problems at a distance of about 20 feet or so. Excellent purchase.

It works, it's small and cheap, but not necessarily for every 433MHz use case. Raspberry Pi users: I think using RTL-SDR receivers and RTL433 software is a more reliable solution for reading remote weather sensors, but it costs a bit more and requires different packaging. Looks the same as the Winoneer RXB6 receiver 4&keywords=433MHz+receiver). I have both
