Measuring Signal Strength?

Is it possible to measure signal strength of the RFXtrx433E?

I have just replaced the aerial and would like to understand if it has made the signal more reliable / stronger. :)

Click on an rfx device and move the lower pan up. There you see the signal strength.

this what I see. If you don't see anything with your device you should ask the plugin author.

Maybe it depends on the device type?
