calls usin

also have a phone that does not need
AC power to operate (not a cordless
phone) so
ou can still make and re-
ceive calls if there is an AC power fail-
ure.

FEATURES
Your RadioShack TAD-794 900 MHz
Caller ID/Call Waitin
ID Cordless
Phone combines a 900 MHz cordless
telephone with a Caller ID unit and a di
-
ital TAD (Telephone Answerin
Device).
The TAD-794’s telephone uses ad-
vanced analo
technolo
to
ive
ou
superior audio qualit
, while its cordless
operation lets
ou move freel
around
our home or office.
The TAD-794’s Caller ID unit records
each caller’s telephone number (and
name, if available in
our area) and the
da
and time of the call, as provided b
our local phone compan

service subscribers. And, if

Call Waitin

shows
ou the incomin
caller informa-
tion, even when
ou are alread
on the
phone.
The TAD stores up to 15 minutes of
messa
es on a computer chip and
records the da
and time each messa
e
was recorded. This
ives
ou advanced
capabilities over tape-based answerin
machines. For example,
ou can delete
individual messa
es and save the rest.
Because
our TAD is full
di
ital, there
are no tapes to bother with and no tape
mechanisms to wear out.
And, the remote operation feature lets
ou operate
our TAD from a touch-tone
phone (or a rotar
phone and pocket
tone dialer).
