Hi,

I've had a look at what is available with the bluetooth library I'm
using. When discovering devices you get no option of signal strength.
The only way that might allow access to this is to create a full
connection to the device. Trouble is this is slow and also requires the
device is paired to the PC. Also, apparently, the microsoft bluetooth
stack doesn't report signal strength under any circumstances. I'll keep
hunting for a way as it would be useful data to get.

<p>Hi,<br>
<br>
Thanks for this new app. <br>
<br>
It works very well with origami AMTEK (bluesoleil stack inside) and
<br>
also with generic USB-Bluetooth dongle (MS stack) as bluetooth unit to
<br>
detect a Qtek pdaphone.<br>
<br>
I use more than one blue app to make house localisation but is it
<br>
possible to have the signal strength as level in xap-bsc
messages?<br>
This will increase the accuracy of the location.<br>

Thanks,<br>
