Meaning

The Signal Strength indicator uses bars to show the strength of the
radio signal. The number of bars increases (up to a maximum of four)
as the signal strength increases.

Note:

This icon is displayed only when data services are

available.

When no bars are shown, no connection is possible for one of the
following reasons:

4

No antenna is attached.

4

You are outside the enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS Network
service area.

4

The signal strength is too weak.

4

A network or account problem is preventing the PCS Connection
Card from obtaining service.

Once a connection is established, this icon is replaced by the
Transmit/Receive icon (see page 41).
