A local guy is telling alot of the kids aroundmy area that if you # *
(menu) > (trace mode) go too err/Channel Code and turn this on you get
better reception because you are using satellites and not the towers ..... I
do not think this is true, I think it actually is used by Nextel to track
problem areas?
Anyone have information on this?
Thanks
Steve

Re: system status question
You are right, the techs use that info to determine if there is a problem
with a site or if the phone is not receiving a signal. Nextel does not
offer satellite service. It also will not enable you to use Sprint CDMA
towers, but it will help make your whites brighter!

Re: system status question
When a phone is put into trace mode it tells us3 things that is need to find
problems........1. the RSSI, SQE and the hex codes. Better
reception........not.
