BTW, at one time 900MHz cordless phones were NEW. Most used 54MHz.
Also, there was no way to change the channel in case of interference..

Then what is that button for that says "change channel".

The one I dad in about 1980 definitely did NOT have a change channel
button. If there was interference, you had to take it back to the
store and exchange it.

You had a 900MHz cordless phone in 1980?

I even had one that sat on the table and you'd pick up the earpiece and talk
into the base. *It wasn't cordless, and had only one hardwired line. *The
interference came from the people on that party line.

I'm talking to the person that I responded to, Mark Lloyd.

Also, I don't see anything here about a 54MHz cordless phone.
