Peak signal S-Meter display and possibly peak hold about beagle_sdr_gps HOT 6 OPEN

I was going to write an extension that worked the same as Twente WebSDR's "S-meter plot" display. A nice signal strength "strip chart" with variable speed, time stamps and auto-scaling.

Hi John,

That would be good, but could the amplitude scale just be defined by the existing max / min sliders ?

Having auto gain is a bit of a pain as the scales bob up and down depending upon which station is operating. I'd prefer to be able to fix the scale limits.

Also could the graph have some sort of rolling average line in addition to a peak reading display.

Sure, all good ideas, and all possible.

Hi John,

The Signal Strength plotting extension is very good, I have used it a few times already.

Maybe the scale calibration could be changed in the extensions S-meter graph configuration screen ?

Hi. That same update added separate S-meter and waterfall cal adjustments to the admin > config panel. I'm still getting the bugs out. The S-meter cal takes effect immediately, even on existing connections. The WF cal requires a connection reload (trying to fix that). The S-meter graph is obviously based on S-meter data, so updates immediately when the cal changes. These are config settings that apply to the Kiwi as a whole and effect every connection.

Are you asking for an S-meter graph extension cal that would be private to each user/connection? Certainly possible..

Hi John,

OK, I hadn't realised that the s-Meter cal also changed the graph. So this method is fine and you don't need to implement any other adjustment.

However the ability to select a rolling average / max / min line on the display would be useful :-)
