FEATURES
Your RadioShack TAD-799 Fully Digital
Telephone Answering System stores all
messages on a computer chip — there
are no tape mechanisms to wear out and
no tapes to bother with. This gives you
capabilities not available in tape-based
answering machines. For example, you
can delete individual messages without
listening to every one.
The TAD-799’s 16-minute memory ca-
pacity lets you store more messages
than many other TADs (telephone an-
swering devices). Its unique, space-sav-
ing design makes it ideal for home and
office use. Your TAD’s remote control
features let you retrieve messages from
almost any touch-tone phone. With an
optional pocket tone dialer, you can
even use it from a rotary phone.
Your TAD’s features include:
