Hi,
I recently replaced my old SISO Litebeam with an ever smaller Nanobeam 5AC GEN2.
As the both antennas are on the latest release, I can see both signal bars, and wondered if it would be possible to set the "beeper" for the antenna alignment on the signal bar of the remote site. With a small antenna as the Nanobeam, you can easily get a big signal from the remote site, but I'd like to align the antenna for best signal at the remote site.
Would be worth to ask for an enhancement? What do you think?

As Jim K6CCC mentioned, a tool for this is already built-in.
I suggest that you
Aim the local antenna to get a good signal strength from the remote node.
Then, browse to the remote node and use its alignment tool to set best signal strength.
I doubt that there will be any discernable difference in alignment between the signal strength at each node.

I know this "audible indicator" is already there, I just thought that since we can have the remote station signal visible on the local node now, we could have it audible too - without connecting to the remote node.
But it's ok, just an idea ;-)
