Your RadioShack ET-928 Digital
Spread Spectrum 900 MHz Cordless
Speakerphone uses advanced digi-
tal cordless technology to give you
superior sound quality. It uses the
900 MHz band, which means less in-
terference and clearer sound, and
greater range than 46/49 MHz cord-
less telephones. Its cordless opera-
tion lets you make or answer calls
just about anywhere in your home or
office. 

And, its optional headset jack lets
you connect a headset to the hand-
set for hands-free conversation —
perfect for when you are working in
the yard or garage.

Its features include:

900 MHz Operation — provides bet-
ter sound and less interference than
many other cordless phones.

3.5-Hour Talk or 7-Day Standby
Time 
— lets you talk for 3.5 hours or
keep the phone off the base for 7
days without recharging (with a fully
charged battery pack).

Digitally Encoded Signal — pre-
vents other people from picking up
your phone’s signal and listening to
your conversations.

Dual Keypads — a full set of keys
on both the ET-928’s handset and its
base let you use either to make and
answer calls or program the phone’s
features.

Handset/Base Disable — automati-
cally disables the ET-928’s handset
or base during a call to prevent any-
one from interrupting your call at the
other keypad.

Speakerphone — lets you make or
answer calls without using the hand-
set.

Two-Way Intercom/Paging  Sys-
tem —
 lets you send a signal from
the base to the handset, or from the
handset to the base, so you can
page someone or easily locate the
handset when it is away from the
base. If someone answers, you can
use the ET-928 as a two-way inter-
com.

20-Number Memory Dialing — lets
you store up to 16 digits in each of
20 memory locations for easy dial-
ing.

Digital Volume Controls — let you
adjust the volume of the sound you
hear through the handset and the
speakerphone.
