In areas with "toll alerting" (you must dial 1+ for all toll calls), you must dial 1+area+number even if the area code is the same.

Many cell phones require you to dial the area code and number to prevent confusion with other nearby area codes.

In overlay areas, you must always dial the area code. In some overlay areas, you can dial just the area+number for local calls; in others, you must dial 1+area+number for all calls, local or toll.

Do you need to dial a 1 in front of the 928?

Yes, when dialing a long-distance number in the United States, you typically need to dial a "1" before the area code, which is 928 in this case. So, if you're calling a number with the 928 area code from outside that area, you would dial 1-928 followed by the local number. If you're calling from within the same area or as part of a local call, you do not need to dial the "1."
