Hi Timo<br><br>Thanks for your feedback on monitoring the reception quality. Is it possible to create a script which display the number each 5 seconds, so that we can actually see the evolution of the reception as moving the phone ?<br>
I am no coder, so I don't know how to do it. The best would be to display the value fullscreen in big size.<br><br>Anyone can please code this ?<br>Here is my very small start<br><br>#!/bin/sh<br>mdbus -s org.freesmartphone.frameworkd /org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device org.freesmartphone.GSM.Debug.DebugCommand "AT+CSQ\r\n"|tr "'" '\n'|grep ^\+CSQ:|cut -d, -f1|cut -d' ' -f2<br>
<br>I think a loop must be added...<br><br>Thanks anyway<br><br>Kimaidou<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/1/6 Timo Juhani Lindfors <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:timo.lindfors@iki.fi">timo.lindfors@iki.fi</a>></span><br>

</div>The buzz seems to be proportional to the transmit power which itself<br>
seems to be proportional to the reception quality I can monitor with<br>
<br>
mdbus -s org.freesmartphone.frameworkd /org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device org.freesmartphone.GSM.Debug.DebugCommand "AT+CSQ\r\n"|tr "'" '\n'|grep ^\+CSQ:|cut -d, -f1|cut -d' ' -f2<br>
<br>
According to specs these units are<br>
<br>
# 0 -113 dBm or less<br>
# 1 -111 dBm<br>
# 2...30 -109... -53 dBm<br>
# 31 -51 dBm or greater<br>
# 99 not known or not detectable<br>
<br>
and when it is around 26 or more the recipient does not hear the buzz<br>
here anymore. Thus, to mitigate the effect I can monitor the reception<br>
quality during call and align myself so that the quality is as high as<br>
possible (just going near a window helps a lot).<br>
