What is the range from the base set? How many feet away can an extension phone be located? Sue

I have used it at over a total of 50' and partly outside the building. DECT is a fairly good standard and I used is years ago for a local telephone network in Poland, so it is robust for a low powered unit. Of course it depends on metal enclosures etc. Screens can cause blockage as can metal doors.

Sue,The boost feature is a handset clarity feature that is automatic and pre-programmed into the handsets. It activates when the sound quality degrades. I can't say about the 200 foot distance plus the metal building. It's a crap shoot, but this is a quality unit that is probably going to perform to the limits of FCC regulations. Keep in mind that the unit also has an optional Range Extender (old KX-TGA405; new KX-TGA405B) that claims to double the range of the phones and its only $35 on Amazon. Good luck,Tom

W. Tobias had the correct answer. The Panasonic range extender does not have any effect on the bluetooth range - cell phones will have to be within 15-20 feet from the base.

I haven't really tested to see how far the range is....but...our garage is about 30-40 feet from our house and we have an extension out there and the service seems to be OK.

I would say about 75 feet. I bring my cordless handset to my backyard and have perfect clarity.

You can answer the phone from either the phone's answer call button or by a quick press on the bluetooth head set. The front presses/depresses on the front side near the top. When my hands are busy, I sometimes answer the phone by pressing the bluetooth against my shoulder. The range is about 30 feet. I can confirm that because I have done it and you still get a good reception as long as you are clear of obstuctions. You get a little static if you have a wall between you and the phone, but it still works pretty well. I strongly recommend this bluetooth.

I had my wireless unit about 300 feet (100 yards) from the base but the reception started to get 'spotty.' I would say that 200 - 250 feet would be a good maximum range.

In general, I agree with Mike about the range (25-30 feet), but I found that walls in the house can interfere and shorten that range. I really like this device and have been using it for over a year now to watch videos while exercising. No problems at about 10 feet. I don't know the frequency but haven't noticed any interference issues with cordless phones or wifi.

I am not sure of the exact range, we have a good sized yard, and never had a problem with range in the house or outside.

I am not sure of the range. It all depends how you have it positioned, keep that in mind.

The base phone is about 6" x 6" and the extensions are about 2" x 6". The base needs a phone line and an electrical outlet. Each extension needs an electrical outlet. Hope this helps.

I can receive all the signals available in a 20 to 40 mile radius of my home. I can't say how far I am from all the towers but somewhere between 20 and 40 miles. Another set of towers are 50 to 60 miles away him and I cannot get any of them.

The range is easily a few hundred feet. My children have very early bedtimes and I use mine outside in the yard all the time! I can go about halfway into my 1 acre yard before the signal goes out.

I ordered this base with (1) additional phone. Needing more phones I ordered (2) more and these connected to the base with no problem. I do think that the limit is 1 base and (3) extensions. Hoping that this answers your question.

As long as you have the power to plug the unit in (use the extension cord), I believe you can extend the range very far because this unit is not dependent on blue tooth or anything else.

You can buy an additional handset at Amazon, they work fine. Distance from main may be over 150 feet. The base is good for two handset and two different numbers.However you can use only one handset at the same time, they also work like an intercom

I'm not sure how many feet the range is I do know I walked 6 blocks away and talked to my grandson in the house. We also used them on a cruise and had not problem with the distance.
