There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and cloning)
that exist with conventional analog services today.
Your battery needs recharging sooner when you use your phone for
analog roaming.
Tip: If you’re on a call when you leave the network available to you and
enter an area where roaming is available (whether digital or analog), your
call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think service is
available, turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to the network.

Automatic:
This setting seeks service on the network available to
you. When network service is unavailable, it searches for an
alternative system.

This setting allows you to select the network only and
prevents roaming on other networks.
Analog:
This setting forces the phone to seek an analog roaming
system. The previous setting is restored the next time the phone is
turned on.
