Choosing your phone number
(NAM selection)
Your service provider can set up your phone to have two phone
numbers that are activated in different service areas—for
example, one number for the Toronto area and one number
for the Montreal area.
A number assignment module, or NAM, consists of a phone
number and network information that the service provider
programs into your phone. When you select a NAM, you are
not only selecting a phone number, you are also selecting a
home system in which you will not be charged roaming fees.
For more information about home systems, see ‘Public system
selection’ on page 33.
The two NAMs are not equal. Some features, such as system
selection (see page 32) and network feature setting (see
page 26), are available only when the primary NAM is selected.

provider for feature codes for showing/hiding your phone
number.
