How does one enter this debug mode and where can I get more info on
it????

It sounds interesting.

We live in a very fringe area and despite having a map provided by the
company, we don't know which cell site we are hitting...so, I can't
even fogure out which direction to aim a yagi in!

Do the cells all transmit control commands on different frequencies or
do they just transmit them to the mobile units on whatever channel the
mobile unit is listening to?

Debug mode for a Kyocera KX1? How do I get there?

Thanks,
