ANT+ Heart Rate Monitor and RSSI

I have one ANT USB stick and several ANT+ Heart Rate Monitor transmitters nearby.
I want to find out which ANT+ HR transmitter is the nearest one to the ANT USB stick.
To accomplish this job I need to know the Rssi of each ANT+ message collected by the ANT USB stick. I already know that the ANT+ Heart Rate Monitor transmitters transmit the extended information (device info and rssi value).
Obviously I’ve installed the ANT Radio service, the ANT USB service and the ANT+ plugins on my device. I’ve than compiled and run the ANT+ plugin sampler but it does not seem to handle the rssi value.
When the search for the ANT+ HR transmitters starts, the OnSearchStarted() function of the MultiDeviceSearch.SearchCallbacks callback class tells me that the rssi information is not available.
Unfortunately I’m obligated to use the ANT+ Plugins because it’s the only one that can use the RF Channel Frequency 57 (0x39) required by the ANT+ Heart Rate device profile.
Could you help me ??

Hi GianniSart,

Have you considered using Proximity Search bins instead of RSSI values?
