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.
