Roaming on 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 home network. You may not be able to access
certain features.
Roaming on Analog Networks
When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a
similar quality provided by other analog carriers today. Although
some features will be unavailable, you can still make and receive
calls. You will experience a few differences:
ᮣ You are more likely to experience cross-talk, fade-out, and
dropped calls.
ᮣ Some features which are standard on the home network are
unavailable.
ᮣ 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.
