I've owned many cordless phones over the years, including some of the newest 5.8 ghz and 2.4 ghz phones.  Obviously, some work better then others.  However, I've noticed a failing among ALL of them, maybe others have noticed the same. When you are more than just a short distance from the _base_ unit, these phones all work fine as long as you are not moving, i.e. standing still.  If you start to move, the signal will begin to break up.  I have a retail location that necessitates being about 150 to 200 feet from the _base_ unit, and all of the newer phones that I've tried do this.  They are unusable in my situation, because I have to move around while talking. I have an older Uniden exs9110 that I bought maybe 4-5 years ago, it's a 900mhz phone with DSS, it doesn't have this problem. It's the best phone I've ever had, it has a very long range, I can walk a block away, moving, and it keeps the signal very strong. None of the phones I've tried in the last year (and I've tried many) will do this, not even the 900 mhz units I've seen. The ones that come the closest are the Panasonic units with dual _base_ antennas, but they are still way behind performance to the old Uniden. I have had other phones in the past besides the Uniden, they were all 900mhz units, DSS, and they ALL did better than ANY of the newer units. If anyone knows of a current-production unit that will perform as well as my old Uniden, I'd really appreciate knowing what it is.
