Ok... so an urban dweller could possibly be locked out of making calls on his/her own Airwave unit due to the 3 concurrent call limit unless they know to setup the whitelist.
I would say that is quite possible. For this reason the device is relatively low powered. It also likely comes with at least your number programed into it so that doesnt happen.

Remember, if Sprint has the PRL (preferred roaming list) on all of its phones set to prefer these Airwave devices over the regular network - which it would have to do to ensure at home calls used the thing in the first place - then everyone in proximity to the Airwave would be trying to use it.
Thats an interesting point. Generally speaking, the phone will select the nearest tower to connect to. In this case the phone will likely see this device as the nearest Sprint tower and try to connect to it. As you mentioned, everyone within the relatively small coverage area of this device will be trying to connect to it. This shouldnt really be an issue however, especially if the device comes preloaded with your phones' credentials.
