Ed,
Panasonic Gigarange (two-Line) and they have a single line 2.4 GHz
wireless with all the features one might want -
Tested with full legal limit 1.8 MHz - 12. GHz NO interference 0000
I tried many filters internally and with the Telco b 4 I came across
these phones.
Now my wife is happy when I'm running DX or a contest and she is on the
phone.
$150.00 - $250 depending on model
