FEATURES
Your RadioShack TAD-779 Digital Tele-
phone Answering System is a high-
quality telephone answering device
(TAD) that you can also control remotely
from any touch-tone phone. With an op-
tional pocket tone dialer, you can even
use it from a rotary phone.
The TAD-779 stores messages on a
computer chip. This gives you advanced
capabilities over tape-based answering
machines. For example, you can delete
an individual message by using remote
commands. Because your TAD is fully
digital, there are no tapes to bother with
and no tape mechanisms to wear out.
The TAD-779’s 16-minute capacity lets
you store a lot of messages. And its
unique, space-saving design makes it
ideal for any office or nightstand.
The TAD-779 has these features:
