Compare the signal strength between the two phones side by side. I always found that my Mogul was about 10db better than my 6700.

For example: Mogul was be at -77db and my 6700 would be at -87db+, which is a good bit worse level of signal.

I don't even know why they bother putting bars on CDMA at all... I make calls all the time with zero bars...
Comparing ##debug between xv6800 and xv6700
xv6800
rx power: -87dbm
rx Ec: 24db

xv6700
rx power: -80
rx Ec: 12db

Looks like the xv6700 has better recption in my case.
