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? 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.

Cheap mail or internet orders do not accept cash. I am not going to
drive or fly 1,000 miles to pay cash for something that can be ordered
over the phone and save me $20. I also do not want neighbors knowing
about the woman who comes to us about her sexual abuse and needs some
immediate encouragement, or any other forms of counseling. I do not
want neighbors knowing how much I paid for that run down house I just
bought to rehab and flip. I also do not want my neighbors knowing I am
planning on visiting my son for a week. Etc. There are lots of things
I don't want others to know about that is commonly discussed over the phone.

Maybe you don't care if your neighbor intercepts the call from your
daughter when she called you about coming home and finding her husband
in bed with your grandchild. That's your business if you don't care.

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.

You certainly go off the deep-end!
I have a facility with 72 cordless phones...one per person and their
own number (outside line). These are varied technologies (900Mh,2.8Mh,
5.8Mh).
It is my job to keep them working. In 9 years I have never heard or
heard of any conversation intercepted by another user.
