## Abstract

The Federal Communications Commission (the Commission) previously required certain providers of Commercial Mobile Radio Services (CMRS) to provide "manual" roaming service upon reasonable request to any subscriber. In this document, the Commission modifies the scope of the "manual" roaming rule to apply only to CMRS providers that offer real-time two-way switched voice or data service that is interconnected with the public switched network using an in- network switching facility. Additionally, the Commission revises the scope to extend to cellular and broadband PCS providers. Also, the Commission extends the rule to cover data-only services as well as voice services. Finally, the Commission terminates its consideration in this docket of issues relating to "automatic" roaming and the potential sunset of the "manual" roaming rule.
