Can anyone point me to why this error occurs?
sdr: MainThread: startup process 'rtl_433 -M utc -F json'
Jun 16 13:44:51 NUC2498 weewx-sdr[15765]: import of driver failed: failed to start process 'rtl_433 -M utc -F json': [Errno 2] No such file or directory (<class 'weewx.WeeWxIOError'>)

This occurs when running under weewx-multi but does not occur when run directly from command line: sudo bin/weewxd sdr.conf

Give this a try:

[SDR]

    driver = user.sdr
    cmd = rtl_433 -M utc -M level -F json
    path = /usr/local/bin/
