I think you might be using DECT without realising it. eg from a search on Amazon.com for 'cordless phone', #4 is an AT&T branded DECT base and handset: https://www.amazon.com/AT-BL102-2-2-Handset-Answering-Unsurpassed/dp/B086QB7WZ1 and similar are at #6, #9, #11, #12. Most of the others are Panasonic or V-Tech, many of which have DECT in the title too. What model of cordless landline phone do you have? Theo
