Unless you live in this specific area, it doesn't help you any, and even if you do, for the most part it just saves Sprint money to roam on X tower before Y tower.
That being said, sometimes if they become corrupt, you will have tons of problems with calls dropping or not establishing correctly.
I don't quite understand your question akijikan?

My question was referring to the classification of PRL files on

Also PRL is very important to me since I live in an area with very poor coverage. Roaming is often a much stronger signal. And PRLs also let you access the latest data-roaming agreements.
