Suspicious MCH BLER BER readings  #38

Describe the bug
BER
Failed so far to find a single instance where a BLER > 0 would trigger BER also to turn different from zero. Such while we managed to create situations with totally different BLER levels from less than 1%, across a few percent, upto 10% and more. Hence I would appreciate to confirmation on this KPI to work and so how. if this MCH BER reading different from zero.

BLER
Also it appears as if the the terminal is announcing way more frequently CRC errors, than we see BLER figure to show different from zero in the UI and the modem-measurements file.

To Reproduce
Reduce incoming RF Power (and witness CINR drop ) till you see CRC errors come in.
For myself when selected MCS23 such is at CINR of approx. 15 dB

Expected behavior

While understood that under excessive BLER, the device might not longer (be able to ) calculate the associated BER, such cannot be always the cases. Also we appreciate some clarification on how possible that BLER readings that are supposed to provide the average for the interval can show/stay zero while the terminal shows is announcing CRC errors already.
