What physical hardware is required to use this adapter? I have a water meter which states 868 and OMS on the case but I guess I need some (rather specific?) USB 868 MHz receiver, don't I? Are there speicific devices which have been tested successfully?

It is basically the very first part of the README:

This adapter allows to receive wireless M-Bus data from supported receivers. The extent of device implementation varies, but wMBus modes can be configured for all listed devices.

  • Embit WMB modules
  • Amber Wireless AMB8465 (Beware: Command mode (UART_CMD_Out_Enable) is enabled!)
  • IMST iM871A
  • CUL

From the discussion taking place here (german) it seems to me recently most people either choose CUL or the IMST Stick
