disabilities, to communicate via a telephone.
Your phone is compatible with TTY devices. Please
check with the manufacturer of your TTY device for
connectivity information and to ensure that the TTY
device supports digital wireless transmission.
When establishing your PCS Service, please call PCS

Then provide the state TRS with this number: 866-727-
