"The extensive forcing features of Nemo Handy-A and Walker Air together with the Samsung Galaxy Core LTE make locking into a specific cell quick and easy. This enables more accurate testing, troubleshooting and optimization of mobile networks, improving the network's quality as well as the usability of mobile services".

The releases of the latest versions of Nemo Handy-A and Nemo Walker-Air also bring support for the portable, battery operated DRT 4311B scanner. The pocket-sized, yet efficient scanner, which is operated via Bluetooth, increases the efficiency of indoor measurements and walk testing, enabling users to carry out multi frequency scans on all technologies and bands. The test receiver's advanced architecture offers a range of solutions that are optimized to process different cellular protocols.
