If you use NetStumbler you can graph signal strength.  It's a little
tricky to do, basically you filter out everything but your own network
using the filters on the left, then you double-click it.

It'll give you a continuous graph.  You can then change channels and
see the effect.  In my case, the change was so dramatic that I just had
to look at the graph to know when I changed channels.  However you can
"mark" the graph by grabbing both antennas in your hands for a second
or two, which will cause a very low signal "tick" on the graph to mark
it.

Look for a channel with high strength, but constant and not in bursts.
