DESCRIPTION

       sigmon  is  a command line tool for monitoring the signal strength seen
       by a Vodafone 3G/GPRS datacard. Once started, it queries  the  datacard
       for  the signal strength and displays it every 5 seconds. Use Ctrl/C to
       stop the signal strength display and exit from sigmon

BUGS

       sigmon is a simple script that assumes  that  the  third  port  of  the
       datacard  is  /dev/ttyUSB2. If the datacard is not the first USB device
       registered the script must be modified to correct the port  name.  Read
       /var/log/messages to find the correct port name.

DEPENDENCIES

       sigmon requires comgt to be installed so that it appears in the current
       search path when sigmon is run.
