In Reply to: External FM signal strength meter? posted by ltman on July 15, 2023 at 19:22:08:
You are down in the microvolt level - plus you have to be able to "tune" to a single frequency of interest (rejecting everything else) and covers the relative bandwidth of the (150Khz or so) signal whose strength you want to measure.
Many companies made portable, tunable Field Strength Meters. Most covered the TV and maybe cable TV bandwith(s). Used ones are pretty cheap on the market now. And the commercial FM band is within a lot of these units' capability.
