Tuning the RSSI value requires moving the sliders to the left (more narrow) or the right (wider) to get the best reception. ESPSomfy RTS tunes the radio center point to 433.42mHz. The RX Bandwidth controls how much of the frequency is listened to so a narrower bandwidth filters out more noise but a wider bandwidth hears more. 97.96kHz gives me good range in my environment but your mileage can vary depending on what other interference is nearby.
Tuning the RSSI value requires moving the sliders to the left (more narrow) or the right (wider) to get the best reception. ESPSomfy RTS tunes the radio center point based on the selection of the Base Frequency slider. This is supposed to be tuned to 433.42mHz for your remotes and motors. The ability to tune this center point is provided as a means to accommodate differences in manufacturing. If you decide to move this off 433.42Mhz do it in very small increments while saving after each change and test. If you happen to be blessed with some means of analyzing the signal the setting like an RTL-SDR your choice for this will be very apparent. Carrier differences have been measured so far between 433.38Mhz and 433.43Mhz.

If you place the receiver on the top of a microwave (don't put that or small animals in there) then you will likely need to narrow the bandwidth as much as possible. As a suggestion don't do that and find a place for the radio away from interference and small animals.
