I'm looking to buy a new cordless phone. Can anyone tell me the differences between 900mhz phones? I've seen digital ones and non-digital. I'd like to get something that won't broadcast my conversations to anyone with a scanner. I recall certain phones being better at this than others.

I have found that VTech offers a good Digital phone. The difference between the " Old " phones usually below 900 MHZ is that the older phones "analog" transmitts radio waves that can be very easily received by other phones or scanners....... On the other hand, Digital phones transmitts data in the form of 111110000110101010001011010's in which cannot be picked up by scanners. My suggestion would be to go and get yourself a " Digital Spread Spectrum" type phone that would bounce the data around different frequencies,
Have fun,
