Same. I've seen access points seem to go out of distance, and then come back un-expectedly because I've regained LOS, or something interfered with LOS when I picked it up the first time.
It'd be extremely hard to compensate for that unless you had a representation of all topographical features, buildings, and other signal impediements.
I think seeing signal plotted on map (eg with the line changing color as snr/power level changes) would be the best indicator of where the AP is.
