[QUOTE="huve, post: 1049499, member: 389517"] If possible, I would take mobile phone to the roof instead of a laptop. And if just signal quality and strength in % is enough. If you have an Enigma2 box with dvb-t tuners, one can use satfinder apps to show signal strenght and quality, you also need a wlan in the roof to connect to the enigma2 box. Second option, if you have tv-stick that is supported in Crazyscan2, you can install a server in you pc, so that you can see the crazyscan2 screens in your mobile. [URL="http://www.esys.com.pl/dvb-t_meter/?lang=en"]DVB-T meter – esys[/URL]. I have a geniatech stick, but it did not work when I tried it years ago, now it says that it is supported (updated 2016), have to try it some day. If you have an usb-otg adapter some tv-sticks work in android phones. I don't have one, so have not tested and I don't know if they have signal quality and strength indicator. I think there are also sdr software for mobiles. If you take laptop to roof, crazyscan2 supported stick is a choice. If you don't have one supported, Progdvb has a plugin that shows signal indications and reads them out in english. Crazycat has made a program called BDADataEx that shows signal status and works with all sticks that have Windows bda-drivers. If I remember right it works also with dvb-t sticks. Next choice is to use some sdr software in Windows. Linux has better tv-stick drivers than Windows. On many sticks there are signal stats in dBs, but I'm no help to tell what software to use.
