Abstract

A process for use in a radiotelephone that has multiple telephone numbers for use in different cellular radiotelephone systems. The numbers are stored in number assignment modules (NAM's) with its corresponding system identification code. The process compares a received system identification code with the ones in memory (103). If a match is found, the radiotelephone user is prompted to select the new telephone number (104). If the new number is not selected or the identification code is not found in memory, the radiotelephone becomes a roaming unit and enters an idle state (107) waiting for an incoming call.
