Recently I bought an AT&T-labelled home telephone system that connects via
Bluetooth with our cellular phones -- so we can receive or place calls on
the latter from any of the cordless-phone extension handsets that came with
the new system. (Will be handy if we decide to "cut the cord" on our
landline phone line.)
I'm still working my way through the 148-pg instruction manual, but so far
am quite pleased with the new system. The audio quality via the cordless
handsets is much better than when holding the cellphones up to our ear.
When at home we recharge the cellphones adjacent to the base unit to ensure
good Bluetooth connectivity.
Thus our former home cordless systems are surplus and free to the
B-VARC'er with earliest timestamp on a reply to this email. There is both a
Uniden
system bought from Radio Shack and a Panasonic system bought from Fry's.
Each has about 5 extensions and I actually was using both simultaneously
throughout the house. They worked "reasonably well" although battery life is
getting short on some of the handsets.
If nothing else, the taker will get about a dozen wall warts to add to the
dozen or so already in the spare-parts box in most ham shacks!
If no takers on this free offer, everything probably will be dumped in the
Missouri City electronics-recycling event on January 10th . . .
