Panasonic KX-TG5453 Base with two extra charging bases spread out around the house. The phones are KX-TGA542M. These are 5.8 "Digital Gigarange" and they work great. I have had zero complaints about sound quality or volume. I have not tried to max the range out here in Houston but in Phoenix I took it three houses down the street and still received a call and could talk with the caller as I walked back toward my house, this was probably about four hundred feet away. The intercom feature works at that distance also. Another thing I like is that when I am talking to family out of town and both my wife and I each have a separate receiver you do not get that loud in your ear blast like a normal phone from each other, also the speaker phone in every unit works great and doesn't have real bad speaker in a box sound and its duplex so you can hear what they are saying while you are talking at the same time. I got them for $179.00 at CostCo about three or so years ago. I love them.

Martin Sent: Saturday, May 12, 2007 1:07 PM To: The Hardware List Subject: [H] Multi-handset phones 5.8 GHz I need to identify a multi-handset phone system that has good volume levels on the other end. I currently have an oldish Panasonic 5.8 GHz Digital FH system but I get a lot of complaints from friends about not being able to hear me. I feel this sometimes has an negative impact with ladyfriends. I've thought that perhaps the problem was really with one or two of the handsets, but I haven't rigorously tested it yet. Which multi-handset units are you guys using (assuming you're using any one of them)? No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
