The problem with stats is they often are displayed as total loss from the beginning of time. Not specific to an exact period, of controled usage. What difference does a particular setting on a radio have, and the ability to measure it after the change nad before the next one. This is why ON-Demand test tools are useful, that home in on a predfined time period, and isntantly viewable.
Yes the data is out there, to enable writing the tool. The question is... Why hasn't it been written yet?
