Is it possible to create RF signal level contours in user specificed ranges based on plotted centroids with signal level values? I've tried several of the Spatial tools but have not been sucessful.

RF propagation depends on the "clutter" in the area around it. It is basically viewshed analysis which Alteryx does not do and you would need all the building, road, tree, etc data for the surrounding area. If you want to do a generalized signal area (basically a circle with expected range), then you could use the buffer tool.
If you have propagation from another tool such as Planet, Alteryx can read in TAB files.

Hi @gcarmich,
You could try this:
1. Use the Make Grid tool to generate a grid over your centroids. If >1 centroid per grid cell, find the average signal.
2. Use the Tile tool to put the grid cells into classified ranges
3. Summarize - Group By Tile - Spatial Combine each tile group
4. Round off the sharp angles of the grid using the Smooth tool
