Does the answering machine play out load when someone calls and is leaving a message or is it silent? The phone system we have now plays out loud so when we have someone in our office and someone calls it interrupts our interaction in office.

Looking for a long range phone, that can go 4 stories up and 2000 ft away from stand at least? How can i tell if it is long range?
Answered by IrvPostThis phone will go through a single moden concrete and pan floor but not 2. We tried in in a building in LA and it worked for single floor but not 2, it will go through 3 drywall walls with one a firewall.
