<p>A CDMA wireless mobile unit (10) is configured to monitor system access failures (114) as the unit (10) attempts to establish and maintain contact while operating in a base station fringe coverage area. The unit (10) counts the number of access failures (118) associated with a particular system identification selected from a preferred roaming list (104). After a specified number of failures, the mobile unit (10) selects a new system identification (106) from the preferred roaming list (104).</p> |
