If I recall correct from flipping through the Radio Shack catalog at
the age of 8 or so, to look at all the stuff I *couldn't* have,
cordless phones used to be around 27 mhz, and also some were 49 mhz.
Same went for Radio- Shack RC cars. The "better" models ran at 49
mhz.



Follow-up, a little history he

It was probably an image of a 27 mhz phone.
