According to some embodiments of the present invention, a reverse link traffic channel code used by a terminal accessing a CDMA wireless communications system is controlled responsive to determining whether the terminal has a duplicate Electronic Serial Number (ESN). In some embodiments, for example, an alternative ESN may be sent to the terminal having the duplicate ESN for use in generating the reverse link traffic channel code. In other embodiments, a time shift may be applied in generating the reverse traffic channel code, such as by time-shifting the reverse link traffic channel code or a long code used to generate the reverse link traffic channel code. In still other embodiments, an alternative long code mask, such as a private long code mask used for a voice privacy feature, may be used responsive to detection of a duplicate ESN. The present invention may be embodied as methods of operating wireless communications systems and/or terminals, wireless communications apparatus such as network components and terminals, and computer program products including program code configured to execute in a wireless communications apparatus.
