Roaming on Other CDMA Networks
When you’re roaming on other CDMA networks, your call
quality will be similar to the quality you receive when
making calls while on the Sprint PCS Network. You may not
be able to access certain calling features, such as Sprint PCS
Wireless Web, however, all of your calls are still private and
secure.
Roaming on Analog Cellular Networks
When you roam on analog cellular networks, you will
experience the identical quality provided by analog cellular
carriers today. Although some calling features, such as
Sprint PCS Wireless Web, may be unavailable, you can still
make and receive calls. You will experience a few
differences:
±
You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk,
fade-out and dropped calls.
±
Some calling features that are standard on the
Sprint PCS Network are unavailable.
±
There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and
cloning) that exist with conventional analog cellular
services today.
±
Your battery needs recharging sooner when you use your
phone for analog cellular roaming.
