Zoomed Video - It was a dark and stormy night when alex_s_42@yahoo.com (Alex T.) wrote: One thing that adds to confusion is the fact that sometimes they write on the box "digital", instead of DSS, whatever that means."Digital" does NOT mean "DSS". Spread spectrum/frequency hopping isan additional feature, and you can be sure they'll tell you about itif present.I've had good luck with the Panasonics. I have an older KX-TG200Gigarange 2.4GHz, which I think uses split 900MHz/2.4GHz, and hadbetter range (about half a city block) and lasted far longer (5 years?Maybe longer, I bought it when they first came out) than any othercordless I have owned. At this point the (second) battery pack needsto be replaced, and the mic doesn't work very well (perhaps due tobeing dropped one too many times to the asphalt) although still itworks ok with headset. The keypad still works perfectly. (Inresearching its replacement, it appears that the "DSS" that it hasdoes not frequency hop, which resulted in charges of falseadvertising.)So I replaced it a month or so ago with a KX-TG2312, a 2.4GMHz phonethat they specifically say DOES frequency hop DSS. It's got morefeatures (CID, speakerphone), but the base unit has only one antennainstead of two, and the range is slightly (maybe 100') less. They'vegot models that I suspect are the same basic phone with answeringmachine (I didn't want the answering machine), sold at the usualstores (Best Buy, Target, etc.)
