216 95 1 8c384
0 0 0 IDL MR
105MN/A 00.00 0
0 300 3X 1
Thanks,

Andy-
Did you ever find any info on this? I've been searching today for the same info, for my spouse's V276. I can get into test mode & get a display similar to yours above. The sites I've found say the 3rd line down on the left is signal strength. If that is so I don't know how to interpret, I don't think it is db (should be negative number anyway but I don't know the range/metric).
I've done a lot of googling, searched Howard forum site and this one with no hits on how to interpret, just how to get the screen. Any help would be appreciated. I can't believe this isn't documented!
TIA, jim b

No Jim, I've not had any luck with finding out much on this.
I think you're right that it's not Db's and the range as you know is around 103 is very marginal but might work and lower the number the better which is I think around 60 something when right next to a CDMA tower.
You're also right that there ought to be better docs on all this, maybe more info is included with a SEEM editor and I've not delved into that area yet.
