Default Cordless Phone Question

Check Consumer Reports out at the library.

In any case I would definitely only buy a digital spread spectrum phone that
sends your voice over several frequencies so no one can intercept the
conversation on a scanner. Consumer Reports rates other phones besides
spread spectrum phones. I would not buy them even if rated higher. You
have to sacrifice a bit of audio quality to buy a dss phone but for security
it is worth it especially if you have neighbors close by.

This might be a bit off topic, but not sure where else to bring it. I am
looking at a multiple cordless phone(base unit with 2 extra hand sets) to
hook up to my VOIP phone line to have it throughout the apartment. There
are no phone wires through the apartment so I need cordless through one
land line. However, if I read one of the manuals correctly I cannot use
two phones at the same time, such as when my wife and I want to be on the
phone together in different rooms talking to somebody. Is this true? Do
you know of any multi handset phones that will allow two handsets to be
used at one time? Thanks.

Hi,
What is such a secret in your phone traffic? You don't use internet?
Latest in cordless phone is DECT 6.0. FHSS can be intercepted. Cell
phone traqffic also can be intercepted.
