Idk if it works with more modern bands, but back in the GSM days I used to make calls in out-of-service areas when jets flew overhead.
GSM is a bit limited because of its Timing Adance (TA) field. It should max out at 32km.
Has it always been set to that?
I’m pretty sure that I have connected line of sight to cell sites at much longer ranges than that.
