Another Worcester-Bosch boiler hack

I decided to automate my heating system after being inspired by Steven Hale’s phenomenal original work

This post is a whistle-stop tour in pictures and video of my take on Steve’s method of reverse engineering the 433MHz signals sent from my DT10RF MK2 thermostat, to enable a node-RED system to be built around my home heating system for more flexible monitoring and control. Many thanks go to Steve for paving the way to make this build a reality.
