Roaming with US Cell


When I'm Roaming off of US Cell's Chessey Small Home network what provider Am I going through? It would have to be either Verizon or Sprint there the only National CDMA Coverage. Or is it a mix of both any help?? Thanks

Re: Roaming with US Cell


It could be a combination of the two, depending on the area you're roaming in.

Verizon Wireless and US Cellular have an extremely long allied relationship, so there's a good chance it is them.

CDMA technology is the leading wireless technology in the United States. There are more carriers, regional carriers, that use CDMA...you aren't limited to on Verizon and Sprint.

Re: Roaming with US Cell


The only reason there is a small community here in Oregon thats basically in the middle of the forest. I know that people with Verizon Wireless and people with Sprint get excellent coverage, not roaming or anything like that. I think there roaming with Sprint. So that leads me to think that it is a VZW Tower up there. How come I cant get Roaming coverage with my US Cell phone?? Thanks

Re: Roaming with US Cell


Certain areas are regulated and some carriers cannot roam in certain areas because of this.

Think if Verizon Wireless could roam on any CDMA carrier anywhere CDMA coverage existed. That would make it impossible for any other carrier to have better coverage than them.
