Others should not have their calls dropped no more than if a person is
calling from top of a hill or in a good position seeing different
towers. A cell phone "dialogs" with every tower in sight and ties up
only ONE channel on each. Which means you use more total channels than
necessary, possibly denying new call service (but not necessarily) to
others in bussy times. If all cell phones in use were doing the same
thing there would be very limited number of chanels open for new phone
calls.
