I probably should have added, as a percentage, not in actual units.
iwlist eth1 scan shows signal level and noise level, amongst other
things
Just for fun, I tried this ( put the file/script in /usr/local/bin as
"wirelessi-scan" for example and do a sudo chmod
+x on it, make a panel launcher etc. )

#!/bin/bash
zenity --info --text "$(iwlist eth1 scan)"

Adjust to taste, and change eth1 to your interface, of course ...
