I have an Amplicom AB 900 answering machine and have, to me, a big problem
with it. It does not announce the calling telephone number before recording
the caller's response - while the phone is still ringing and answering
message has not yet played. This is unlike other answering machines I have
had and worn out. Knowing the caller telephone number permits me to avoid
talking to someone I'd rather not or robocalls.

I read the manual carefully and tried Google with no help.

Before I have to buy a different answering machine does anyone have a
solution?

TIA

Is this something that has just started happening or something not
right from the get-go? I've had luck sometimes by just unplugging
electronic gizmos for a few minutes then resetting things. No specific
solution for your problem.
