Also, make sure to change the Sample Rate to 1 second for 1X and HDR, as this quicker refresh rate will help you make faster antenna adjustments.

Hope this helps...
Best to all,

Wow!
Interesting!
I love learning new info like this.
Hey, here's an idea.
You could maybe make a new thread here with info like this or a tutorial about how to enter and use the FieldTrial and/or other DEBUG Tools.
Sounds like a great candidate for a Sticky!
