ALT-F7 is in the key bindings table for SIGNALMON and it used to bring 
up an OSD with a signal strength meter when used during live TV.  I used 
it years ago, and I just tried it now but it doesn't seem to do anything 
anymore.  I tried it with the pcHD3000 and the HDHR.  I can't recall if 
these were the tuner cards I had when it did work.

Does this still work for anyone else out there?
