Your RadioShack 2.4 GHz Digital Spread Spectrum Cordless Telephone and Digital Answering System uses advanced technolo- gy to give you superior audio quality and ex- tended range.

The answering system’s Caller ID unit records each caller’s telephone number (and name, if available in your area) and the date and time of the call, as provided by your local phone company to Caller ID service sub- scribers. If you subscribe to Call Waiting and Caller ID, the answering system can show you the incoming caller information, even when you are already talking on the phone.

The answering system stores up to 18 min- utes of messages on a computer chip and records each message’s day and time. This gives you advanced capabilities over tape- based answering machines:

You can delete individual messages and save the rest.

There are no tapes to bother with and no tape mechanisms to wear out.

The remote operation feature lets you oper- ate your answering system from a touch-tone phone (or from a rotary phone with a pocket tone dialer).
