bladerf cannot find the signal but Test PLMN 1-1

[test4yate]

Hello
Recently I received my bladerf x40, and installed yateBTS. I have a big problem puzzling me a few days , now I still have no idea to solve that.

When I set the MCC and MNC to 001 and 01 ，my phones can successfully find the signal "Test PLMN 1-1" and received sms, but when I change the MCC to 460 (I'm in China now, accroding to http://www.mcc-mnc.com/), my phones cannot find my signal.

Do you everybody have the same problem?

Hi,

How is your labkit configured? Are you using nib with subscribers or regexp mode? If regexp mode what is the configured regexp? Are you using the same sims & phones to when using China's MCC? Are you using test sims or real sims?

I followed this tips https://evilsocket.net/2016/03/31/how-to-build-your-own-rogue-gsm-bts-for-fun-and-profit/ to configure my yatebts.
The same phones&sims, maybe my faked signal strength is weaker than the real CMCC or China UNICOM ？
