Any way for VZW TP2 to force Sprint roaming?

So there are some threads about forcing the Sprint phones to roam, but can't seem to figure out how to force my VZW phone to roam. Any suggestions?

I ask mainly because where i sit most of the day has much better Sprint coverage then VZW does.. and I often miss calls.

thanks,

the only thing i can think of is to use a older prl.
i think with the new updaes on vzw, im talking about them taking over alltel, they agreed to not let you roam on sprint. i think this is true. i used to be able to roam on sprint or vzw (i cant remember) on my allel phone with a different prl.

I'm pretty sure it'll still actually roam on Sprint, that doesn't seem restricted but hard to tell. What I'm trying to do is force it on Sprint when VZ's signal is really weak. If VZ isn't there at all then it'll probably roam just fine (supposedly anyway... not sure how I can tell... and no idea how I can find an area that has ZERO VZ signal but does have Sprint. haha)
