Details

The patch adds a line showing signal strength to a tuner's screen. The line looks like this: "Field strength: 54 dBu".

It's for players having TEA5767 or LV24020.

I've tested the patch on my H10. Unfortunately TEA5767 updates its field strength meter register only on station change. I don't know how LV24020 behaves.

The last version of the patch corrected a bit. Restored polish diacriticals and removed one unnecessary change (see polski.lang).

I used this patch to create a "Mute weak stations" patch (FS#8764), for anyone who likes the feature.

Please note that TEA5767 doesn't update it signal meter when it is read. It is updated when frequency is changed or you mute off.

I've fixed a bug in LV24020LP field strength decoding. Tested on Sansa C250.
