Hi,

first of all: This project is awsome. The only thing i am missing right now is that there is not signal strength details on receives messages, only on the Raw Packet Feed Page. So i would love to see

  1. see Signal strength on received packages. right now there is only a "No signal sample" message
  2. see Signal strength for all hops (i dont know if thats possible but the native app shows that using "tools" -" Trace Path Using Map".

Signal strength per-hop is only possible for trace packets, which we have the trace interface for. We don't currently retain RSSI/SNR for packets, but I suppose we could. I'll look into it.

And just to check, you're meaning in the message/channel interface being able to see the RSSI for a given messages final hop to you? That's always gonna be pretty consistent, right? Just whatever the RSSI from the nearest repeater to you is, or the second nearest or etc.

Added. It will also pass one sample on to the packet analyzer, but the multi-path view is where you can see all of them. It is just the RSSI/SNR from your radio on hearing that last hop, so doesn't tell you anything about the quality of the link through the chain -- that's what a trace is for.
