Your Radio Shack ET-905 900 MHz

Cordless Telephone uses the most

advanced analog cordless telephone

technology to give you superior au-

dio quality. It uses the recently allo-

cated 900 MHz band that virtually

eliminates interference caused by

other cordless phones using the

same frequency, while providing

clearer sound and greater range than

46/49 MHz cordless telephones. Its

cordless operation lets you move

freely about your home or office.

Its features include:

900 MHz Operation — provides bet-

ter quality sound (over twice the

range of 46/49 MHz cordless

phones) and less interference than

many other cordless phones.

60 Channels — continuously scans

60 channels (frequency pairs used

between the base and the handset)

and selects the one with the least in-

terference each time you make or re-

ceive a call.

20-Memory Dialing — lets you

quickly dial numbers you have stored

in memory.

DD — lets you quickly dial a number

you stored in direct dial memory by

pressing one button.

Paging System — lets you send a

signal from the base to the handset

so you can page someone or easily

locate the handset when it is away

from the base.

Privacy — prevents the person on

the other end of the phone line from

hearing your conversation with

someone in the room.

Flash — sends an electronic swich-

hook signal for use with special

phone services such as call waiting.

Redial — lets you quickly dial the last

number dialed.

Pause — lets you store a pause in a

memory number for use with a phone

system that requires an outside ac-

cess number (for example, 9).

Ringer Volume — adjusts the

base’s ringer volume to three levels

— high, low, or off.

Touch Tone (DTMF) or Pulse Dial-

ing — lets you use your phone with

either type of dialing.

Hearing Aid Compatible — lets you

use this telephone with hearing aids

that have a T (telephone) switch.
