+Install the package named <kbd>rtl-433</kbd> on most distributions on Linux. It's
+also available on [FreeBSD](https://ports.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=rtl-433).
+
+You might want to install
+[these udev-Rules](https://github.com/osmocom/rtl-sdr/blob/master/rtl-sdr.rules).
+
+FYI, reloading these rules with:
+
+```console
+$ sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger
+```
+
+Then we should be able to run the program like this:
+
+```console
+$ rtl_433 -C si -M hires -M level -M stats -Y auto
+```
+
+I've installed this on a laptop running Ubuntu.
