AccuTracking

On my i730 I am able to view Transmit and Receive signal strenght from the advanced menus: # * (Menu button) (right arrow). Does anyone know how to stream that data out for mapping purposes? I want to map Nextel signal strenght, OR LACK OF, to prove to Nextel that there are dead spots where they assure me there IS coverage.

Also, I am demoing a mobile re-radiating kit from Richardson Electronics for the Nextel band and I would like to be able to measure how much db increase I am getting.

Any help will help!

I don't know of a canned solution. I can suggest two approaches. Both require some level of programming.

1. If you're a developer, then develop your own J2ME MIDlet to pull GPS and Signal Strength info from the phone and send it to a server, log it or output it through the phones serial port.

2. Connect your phone to a PC and query the signal strength using HyperTerminal. A little custom PC app would help a lot here. It could query the phone and add a timestamp to the readings. You could then meld GPS data with the RSSI data, matching on the timestamps. This data could then be displayed using MapPoint or the like.
AT+WS50? wil return signal quality
AT+WS53? will return signal strength
