Hello
I have a base for a Panasonic cordless 900mhz phone but no handset
other than a Vtech 900mhz handset. Assuming the channel allotment is
the same I wonder if the Vtech can use the Panasonic if the handset is
charged with an alternate cradle. I checked Goldswasser's faq but to
no avail
Thanks

Probably no.. There is a small chance they are both the same phone in
different packaging, but I doubt it. You could always try.

I see that my statement was unclear.. If the phone looks physically
compatible, there is a possibility. If it fits on the base, try it and see
what happens if you have no use for the phone and base.

Why not just try it? It's old enough technology that it may work.



I think inter-phone compatibility went away with digitally controlled
46/49Mhz phones

Before that they used simple pilot tones and standard fixed frequency
crystal oscillators. Assuming you got a phone and base on the same
channel, you could likely tweak the pilot generators/detectors and have
it work.

After that, they used there own phoneBase communication scheme, and/or
subcodes.

The different manufactures use their own frequency and protocol. Only if the
units are internally the same and designed to work with the same protocol
they will be compatible.
