+=======
+
+rtl_433 turns your Realtek RTL2832 based DVB dongle into a 433.92MHz generic data receiver
+
+Installation instructions:
+--------------------------
+
+Compiling rtl_433 requires [rtl-sdr](http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/rtl-sdr) to be installed.
+
+Installation using cmake:
+
+ cd rtl_433/
+ mkdir build
+ cd build
+ cmake ../
+ make
+ make install
+
+Installation using autoconf:
+
+ cd rtl_433/
+ autoreconf --install
+ ./configure
+ make
+ make install
+
+
+Running:
+--------
+
+ rtl_433 -h
+
+ Usage: [-d device_index (default: 0)]
+ [-g gain (default: 0 for auto)]
+ [-a analyze mode, print a textual description of the signal]
+ [-l change the detection level used to determine pulses (0-32000) default 10000]
+ [-f change the receive frequency, default is 433.92MHz]
+ [-S force sync output (default: async)]
+ [-r read data from file instead of from a receiver]
+ filename (a '-' dumps samples to stdout)
+
+
+Examples:
+
+| Command | Description
+|---------|------------
+| `rtl_433 -a` | will run in analyze mode and you will get a text log of the received signal.
+| `rtl_433 -a file_name` | will save the demodulated signal in a file. The format of the file is 48kHz 16 bit samples.
