Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the
Sprint PCS Nationwide Network and whether your phone is operating
in analog or digital mode. The following chart indicates what you’ll

Tip:
Remember, when you are using your phone off the Sprint PCS
Nationwide Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits
(1 + area code + number).
Note:
Unless your PCS Service Plan includes roaming, you will pay a higher
per-minute rate for roaming calls.
Roaming on Other Digital Networks
When you’re roaming on digital networks, your call quality and
security will be similar to the quality you receive when making calls
on the Sprint PCS Nationwide Network. However, you may not be
able to access certain features, such as Sprint PCS Vision.
