Nice hack!

Do you have any idea what's arfcn - how do you generate it? If you can
generate it after the data's collected, couldn't it be created
server-side (to me it sound's redundant information if it's generated
from other data).

And I don't support the idea of one client uploading to several
databases, the databases should do the syncing..
