This is weird, there is not such thing as "lowering EDGE strenght", Edge signal it's the same as GSM voice, you can give less resources to 2G data and more to voice or modify the parameters to force the handover to 3G. I'm pretty sure you can't "lower" EDGE power, without severely affecting GSM voice service.
