Signal Strength Indicator
Note:
Obstacles that block the signal path may affect the signal strength
indicator function.
The signal strength indicator can help you determine when
a radio is moving out of range. It is a number displayed
when you’re receiving on the same channel and code as
another transmitting radio and it indicates the relative signal
strength of the transmitting radio:
1
is weakest (usually
farthest away) and
6
is strongest (usually closest).
