GoKawiilDIY project pairs FT232H USB board with CC1101 to scan 433MHz signals
A hobbyist built a 433MHz signal scanner by wiring a CC1101 radio module to a CJMCU-232H FT232H board, controlled entirely from a laptop via a Python script using pyftdi, with no microcontroller flashing required. The setup was tested against a cheap AliExpress copy remote with a fixed code, successfully decoding all four of its buttons, with testing against actual gate remotes planned for a follow-up post.
