I'd find such an utility very useful as well. At the moment my pcTV
290e picks up signals from my 2 local TV transmitters that almost
exactly 180 degrees apart from my location and approx the same distance
away. I realise that the gain from the back end of my (yagi) antenna
should be a lot less from the front but nevertheless it happily tunes to
(almost) all channels from both tx's but some it gets the programme
guide for and some not. Being able to point the antenna more accurately
woud be most helpful.
