MeshCore Signal Tester

MeshCore Signal Tester monitors mesh traffic from a MeshCore companion radio (over Bluetooth, USB-C, or Wi-Fi) or a MeshCore repeater (USB serial CLI) in real time. The connected device type is auto-detected.

It is built for field signal testing: it keeps capturing received packets and your GPS position while the phone is in your pocket with the screen off. A foreground service holds the connection and location alive — something a normal mobile browser cannot do, because it freezes the page and drops the link when the screen turns off.

Features:

* Connect to a MeshCore companion over Bluetooth, USB-C serial, or Wi-Fi (a raw TCP link to the Wi-Fi firmware), or to a repeater over USB.

* Group every reception by message, so you can see which repeaters forwarded the same packet and compare their signal side by side.

* Seen-repeaters table with per-repeater RX count and max/last RSSI and SNR.

* Scrolling SNR and RSSI history charts with a noise-floor estimate; zoom and pan the time axis.

* Signal 3D map: each received packet is placed at your GPS location, with height encoding SNR; many map styles, or none.

* Discover nearby nodes and read the SNR they measured for your uplink.

* Received-packets table with full decoded detail and raw hex.

* CSV export and re-import for offline review.

* Persistent on-disk capture that survives a reload or restart.

* Optional beep on each packet, auto-remove of old data, adjustable display window, repeater filter, keep-screen-on, device battery readout, and a light/dark theme.

All captured data stays on your device. The app has no ads and uses no analytics and no tracking. Map tiles are fetched from third-party tile servers only while online.
