At least here in the land of South Western Bell Mobil Systems, a *79
in your home area will force an immediate release of FMR.

I too take frequent trips to other citys in the area and have resorted
to forwarding my phone to a land-line during the 11:30pm-1:00am limbo
time.  At least the last time I talked to SWBMS about this they were
"Working on a solution" for people who want a longer period of FMR.
