When making a call from my test phone (a T610 here), I see the BSC  
assigning more than one channel ...

For example, with a MO call :

<0010> abis_rsl.c:1182 Activating ARFCN(514) TS(2) SS(0) lctype TCH/F  
chan_nr=0x0a r=OTHER ra=0xe7

RELEASE ACK

As you see, there was 3 TCH assigned ... (and of course two of those  
ultimately failed with Radio Link Failure ...).
Is anyone else seeing this ?
