Like most digital phones Nokia phones prefer digital over analog. If the analog signal is strong enough to overcome a faint digital signal then it is fine.
Nokia phones run into problems if there is a CDMA signal that the phone can read even if it is a roaming signal then the phone will ignore the analog signal in favor of a digital signal.
You can be within sight of a home analog tower and a distant roaming CDMA signal can be read by the phone the Nokia phone will ignore the analog signal. This has been a problem in rural markets where USCC and VZW have a border. VZW has CDMA on darn near every tower and USCC has not built out their CDMA footprint as well.
