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? CmCoYou don't use internet?
Latest in cordless phone is DECT 6.0. FHSS can be intercepted. Cell phone
traqffic also can be intercepted.


Do you ever buy stuff by credit card over the phone? Do you ever have to
call your bank and give them you password over the phone? I do. As for the
internet, that is why they have secure sites for buying stuff. And your
digital cell phone cannot be intercepted. Your analog cell phone could be
but if anyone still owns one they probably won't be able to use it next year
when the last analog system is turned off.


Hi,
I very SELDOM use credit card. I use CASH! I go to my bank in person.
It's tone's throw from my house.
You do sort of stupid things on your telephone. Secure means always
there is a hole, LOL! Who made it secure?
Cell phone interception is possible, just equipment for that is pretty
expensive. I spent all my life in communications. Lot of years on
military one; Stratcomm, IWCS, ICS, WWMCCOMM. I guess I know bit about
communications. Analog, Digital, Wired, Wireless(over the air, deep sea,
underground), Secured, Encrypted, Voice, Data, Telemetry, etc. You name it.


....and you write in the tempo of Morse! 8^)
