In the old days of analogue broadcast satellites it was quite easy to align the dish using a sat finder with an audio output where the tone frequency corresponded to signal strength.
The higher the tone the stronger the signal.
If it already exists, I apologise, but if not, then this functionality could be added to SDR Console it would be a great help, using one of the QO100 beacons, when aligning a dish with both hands and eyes.
Thanks Simon.
