FEATURES

Your RadioShack TAD-799 Fully Digital Telephone Answering System stores all messages on a computer chip — there are no tape mechanisms to wear out and no tapes to bother with. This gives you capabilities not available in tape-based answering machines. For example, you can delete individual messages without listening to every one.

The TAD-799’s 16-minute memory ca- pacity lets you store more messages than many other TADs (telephone an- swering devices). Its unique, space-sav- ing design makes it ideal for home and office use. Your TAD’s remote control features let you retrieve messages from almost any touch-tone phone. With an optional pocket tone dialer, you can even use it from a rotary phone.

Your TAD’s features include:

Voice Day/Time Stamp — announces the day and time when each message was recorded.

Call/Message Counter — displays the number of messages recorded.

Selectable 3-Digit Remote Operation Security Code — helps prevent unau- thorized remote operation.

Digital Outgoing Message — gives you a clear outgoing message than can be up to 60 seconds long.

Memory Backup — protects messages stored in memory in case of a power failure.

Automatic Toll Saver — answers the phone after two rings when you have new messages. Otherwise, it answers after four rings. This lets you hang up before the TAD answers to avoid charg- es when you call by long-distance to check your messages.

Room Monitor — lets you listen from a remote phone to the room where your TAD is located.

Call Screening — you can listen to in- coming calls so you can decide whether or not to answer.
