When citing LTE signal strength, be sure to clarify whether you are referencing RSSI or RSRP. See our article:http://s4gru.com/ind...trength-primer/AJ

My bad - I meant RSSI. Must have been distracted by having to stand for our national anthem every 5 minutes

Good article BTW.

At what dBm does LTE become usable?After messing around with my phone, some cups, and aluminum foil, I managed to increase (or is it decrease?) the dBm to -85ish.

It varies with hardware sensitivity (get what you pay for) but as a rule of thumb, anything lower than -105dBm (1 bar) is very weak and you will experience degraded service. -85dBm is pretty good. A very strong signal would be -70dBm or higher.
