Drop Call 1 (UE vs. scanner best server) shows that for the
scanner and UE SC008 is the best server prior to the drop.
However, about 30 seconds before the drop, the scanner
selected SC018 as the best server while the UE continued to
have only SC009 in its active set resulting in the drop call.
Immediately after the drop, the UE camps on SC018.
