Your RadioShack ET-919 9-Memory
900-MHz Cordless Telephone uses the
900 MHz band which means less inter-
ference, clearer sound, and greater
range than 46/49 MHz cordless tele-
phones. Its cordless operation lets you
make or answer calls just about any-
where in your home or office.

And, its headset jack means you can
connect an optional headset for hands-
free convenience while you use the
phone.

The ET-919’s features include: 

900 MHz Operation —  provides better
sound and less interference than many
other cordless phones.

20 Channels  — automatically selects a
clear channel when you make or answer
a call. You can also manually change
channels during a call.

Super CCT Noise-Reduction Circuitry

—  gives you sound clarity comparable

to that of a corded phone.

Security Access-Protection Code  

automatically prevents other cordless

phone users from using your phone line
while the handset is off the base.

COM-LOK

®

 —  ensures that other cord-

less phone users cannot use your phone
line when the handset is on the base.
