Question about signal strength

Customer
Newbie

My new Motorola Droid has the power bar varying between one and four bars in the same room.  Web reception changes all the time between 3g and 1x with the phone in the same spot-on a desk.  I am 1.1 miles from a tower and have never had a dropped call.  Calls on the Droid do break up, just go quiet for part of the conversation.  Calling other Verizon phones and other carriers.  All previous phones did not have this breakup problem including the LG Dare that  I upgraded.  Any ideas?  Sound quality is the best I have heard on a CDMA network when it does not break up.

If you have 1 bar in 3g, it means you have good 1x signal. I consider 1 bar in 3g the "5th" bar. I have the same issue as you.. I never have any dropped calls and phone work fine, signal reads 1 bar 3g.
