[comp.dcom.telecom] Cordless phone that works within 10 miles

tmk@io.att.com (t.m.ko) (04/05/89)

I am looking for a cordless phone that would work even if the handset
is away from the base for up to 10 miles.
Is there such a product?

I need to use it in some rural area where cellular service is unavailable.

All recommendations and comments are appreciated.

Amazing!  I'd be grateful to have a cordless phone that would work from one
end of my >house< to the other without buzz or interference as I pass through
the fields of the high voltage power lines outside!  If I could have one that
would let me walk around the block with my dog, that would be magnificent!
