Here’s another example of how the iPhone’s signal changes when you touch “the spot”.  Using the GSM speaker noise to show the signal transmission levels when touching and not touching, it appears that something changes significantly when touched.

It appears that there might be hardware issues with some iPhones because, while I can replicate this issue, others cannot.  

Thanks Josh!
