FEATURES
Your RadioShack TAD-797 Digital An-
swering System 900MHz
Speakerphone combines a 900MHz
cordless telephone with a 50-memory
Caller ID unit and a digital TAD (Tele-
phone Answering Device).
The TAD-797's telephone uses ad-
vanced digital spread spectrum technol-
ogy to give you superior audio quality
and the utmost security. Its cordless op-
eration lets you move freely around your
home or office.
The TAD-797's Caller ID unit records
each caller's telephone number (and
name, if available in your area) and the
day and time of the call, as provided by
your local phone company to Caller ID
service subscribers. If you have Call
Waiting with Caller ID, the TAD-797
shows you the incoming caller informa-
tion, even when you are already on the
phone.
The TAD stores up to 15 minutes of
messages on a computer chip and
records each message's day and time.
This gives you advanced capabilities
over tape-based answering machines:
• You can delete individual messages
and save the rest.
• There are no tapes to bother with
and no tape mechanisms to wear
out.
The remote operation feature lets you
operate your TAD from a touch-tone
phone (or from a rotary phone with a
pocket tone dialer).
