quick way to show signal strengths for antenna tuning (1 Viewer)

[kjdshfkjshdkhsd]

Hey everyone,

I wanted to ask. When I am in the media portal interface and I click on TV then channels it shows me a list of my channels along with a signal percentage next to each one. I don't have access to this interface while i am up in the attic moving my antenna around so I wanted to know if anyone knows if there is a way I can use my phone to dump all my channel signal levels to see if my antenna is being pointed correctly.

In android market there is an app called MP TUNING DETAILS.
Perhaps it helps.

I wouldn't use MP's signal strength/quality reports to point my antenna. The lag in taking the readings (ie. the slowness in updating) makes it easy to overshoot how far you move the aerial, and the sensitivity of the readings from PC tuners is usually not enough to point the aerial accurately anyway.

My recommendation: use a tool designed for the job (ie. a signal meter).
