Are there any utilities out there that you can visually see the signal input that shows the actual specturm
of how strong or weak the signal is?

A spectrum analyzer would be the best, followed by a satellite signal meter.

For DVB cards there is crazycat for windows and updateDVB for Linux. Only some cards are supported.

I cant speak for windows but in Linux a spectrum scan takes between 1.5sec and 4sec depending on the card (satellite), ATSC takes between 6 and 30sec depending on the card. Either way, defn not real time like an actual spectrum analyzer.

So I figured if they have a WIFI spectrum reader they gotta have it for a FTA dish. I
