[RFI] Cordless 5.8ghz phones

[Dave Hachadorian]

While we're on the subject of RFI and cordless phones, let 
me put in a plug for the Uniden EXP970 900 MHz cordless 
phone. It has been bulletproof here in the presence of 1500 
watts on all HF bands. It also sounds good on both ends. 
It's available at Walmart for under $10.
