Could you share which versions/branches have you used in your tests?
I was using master branch at the time. I will test with more recent master branch updates later today.
Also could elaborate on '-m' - what's this option for and when it's necessary? How it's support to affect osmo-bts configuration?
There are two ways to implement multi-ARFCN with the B210 - using independent, direct channels for each ARFCN and mutiplexing multiple ARFCN's onto a single RF channel.
The direct approach uses separate physical channels of the B210 (one ARFCN each for side A and side B). Note that channels are not 100% independent on the B210 because they share a single local oscillator (LO). For that reason ARFCN channel separation is limited to roughly 25 MHz. This is the configuration if '-m' is not specified.
The 'multi-carrier' approach multiplexes up to 3 ARFCN channels onto a single physical RF channel (side A) on the B210. Channel spacing is fixed at 800 kHz, or 4 ARFCN channels. ARFCN settings from OpenBSC must match accordingly. The '-m' option enables this configuration.
Also note that the above configurations cannot be combined.
