Well at my house, I have been hearing an echo more, and a sharp tone when I talk on my cell phone sitting at my desk.....only here, no where else. I entered the test mode on my 5185i, I know the db can tell you the info I want, and I know the lower the better. But, I do not know where it tells me the db level.
On the first screen (01 in the upper left) it reads as follows:

IDLE 0466 DC
256 05 1F
E9A 003 00 0
-080-075

I am supposing it is the last line? The db being from 80-75? With the antenna up, it goes slightly lower. If this is not the db level, what screen on the test mode can I see this. Thanks!

Someone has to be able to know how to tell what the db level is on a 5100 series phone....!
