Roaming on Analog Networks
When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a
similar quality provided by other analog carriers today.
Although some features, such as SprintPCS Vision and Sprint
PCS Voice Command, will be unavailable, you can still make
and receive calls and access voicemail. If you are accustomed
to SprintPCS Service, you may notice some of the following
differences when using analog service:
䢇You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk,
fade-out, and dropped calls.
䢇Some features which are standard on the Nationwide
SprintPCS Network, such as call waiting, Sprint PCS Vision,
and directinternational dialing, are unavailable.
䢇Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you
are roaming, you will notreceive notification until you
return to the Nationwide SprintPCS Network. (See
“Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming”on
page 74.)
䢇There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and
cloning) thatexist with conventional analog services
today.
䢇Your battery’s charge will deplete more quickly and you
will need to recharge itmore often when you use your
phone for analog roaming.
Note:When using your phone in analog mode, the phone may feel warm.
This is normal for analog operation.
