this damn phone!!
i just bought a "new" cordless phone. it was second hand and only 10 bucks. i charged it for 24 hours and when i use it, it clicks very loudly. drives me nuts. i thought it was because i had it right beside my computer, which the manual says not to do. but i turned it all off, even unplugged the modem, and it didnt work. any ideas?

It tells you not to put it beside your computer because, exposure to a strong EMF field (i.e, the transformer inside your computer), has a detrimental effect on the circuitry of the phone.

Because most forums require you to type a minimum of five characters for a post to be posted. This forum actually only requires one though.
