Thanks for the response! This level is a bit beyond where I normally work. Followup comments in line:

By beaconing correctly, you mean the handset recognize the network?


Yep. When doing a scan it correctly identifies the new network. 
 

Based on these logs, you're not receiving  RACH bursts.


What makes you say that? I don't see RACHs in either log, but the phone camps in the 52M trace so it must have received a RACH. I do see attempts to decode a RACH in the RAD1 trace though...
 

Both of the transceiver outputs are attached. The only big difference I see is in the "underflows" on the RAD1, which in my experience is a deal-breaker; that's not usually an easy fix.

This is unrelated to osmo-bts. The effect on performance will depend on the frequency of occurrence.


My thought was that osmo-bts may not be producing enough packets (or something) causing it to underflow. Am I off base there?
