After some thought, I am not thinking it is the LTE search thing -- because I tried to set my phone to CDMA only and it still did the quick drop thing (if LTE is disabled, it shouldn't search for it)... So I am thinking it is a combination of my Airave (2.0), my neighbors (Airave 2.5) being picked up quite strongly through my signal booster, and the weak 1x800 signal I am getting in the area...
