I was once surprised to get 14 networks shown on a search from the top

I shall try and remember to do that next time. ISTR that the network
of the country you're coming from hangs onto you for much of the sea
crossing (putting aside manual selection).


How do you know all of this? My phone just makes calls without giving me
any info about whether foreign networks are visible.
