104 Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience
Understanding Roaming
Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re
off the nationwide Sprint PCS network. Any time you are
roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon (
). If you are
roaming on a digital system, the roaming icon will display
along with the text
Digital Roam , and on an analog system,
with the text Analog Roam .
Tip:
Remember, when you are using your phone off the nationwide
Sprint PCS network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code +
number).
Note:
Unless your Sprint PCS Service Plan includes roaming, you will pay a
higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.
Roaming on Other Digital Networks
When you’re roaming on digital networks, your call quality
and security will be similar to the quality you receive when
making calls on the nationwide Sprint PCS network. However,
you may not be able to access certain features, such as
Sprint PCS Vision.
Note:
Sprint PCS Ready Link Service is not available in roaming areas.
Note:
If you’re on a call when you leave the nationwide Sprint PCS network
and enter an area where roaming is available (whether digital or analog),
your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think
Sprint PCS Service is available, turn your phone off and on again to reconnect
to the nationwide Sprint PCS network.
