Roaming With Your Sprint PCS PhoneTM
Your Sprint PCS PhoneTM is you can use it to make and receive calls in many places.
?? In any city where Sprint PCS provides service.
?? On other PCS CDMA networks there Sprint PCS has implemented roaming agreements.
When you use your phone outside the Sprint PCS Network, it’s called roaming. If you’re roaming in areas
where agreements are in place with PCS CDMA providers, you will pay the roaming rate plus long-
distance charges, where they apply. (See “Display Icons” on page 7 for network indication icons.) Always
dial using 10 digits (area code + number) when calling from outside your Sprint PCS Home Service Area.
Setting Your Phone’s Mode
Your Sprint PCS PhoneTM allows you to control your ability to roam. (See “Set Mode” )
Calling Experience
When you use your phone on other PCS CDMA networks, your calling experience and call quality will be
quite similar to what you experience when making calls within the Sprint PCS Network. Although certain
calling features may not be available, your phone calls are still private and secure.
