System ID (SID) numbers
These are the network numbers that are used to create preferred roaming lists, or to simply find your home network ID. Please use the contact form on my page to send me any additions or corrections.
NOTE: I have recently made some notations to the effect that a SID might not longer be in use due to consolidations. I have reflected this data by denoting (gone?) where appropriate. This was done as I have not seen these systems listed in recent roaming lists for Verizon/BAM. If you happen to have recent information regarding these systems, please drop me a line. Thanks!

Subject: Re: Verizon/BAM/PrimeCo/AirTouch SID numbers
SID hint: for 800 MHz systems (which all former Airtouch and BAM
markets are), odd numbered SIDs indicate A-side, and even numbered
SIDs indicate B-side. (I have yet to figure out the SID assignment
scheme for 1900 MHz carriers.)

This page was very helpful for me doing some testing of legacy cellular formats. It was minor, but I wanted to get rid of the “roam” indication on the handset. I found the handset’s home SID here. I put that in to the test equipment, and the “roam” incidcation went away. Thank you. 🙂
I have been following you for many years now and this is my first time sending you an email. I’d like to know if you know anybody in the Los Angeles County area that could actually help me program my phone PRL and find a certain SID I’m trying to avoid. I am willing to pay for the services thanks a lot Brian
