can the 70 numbers stored in memory be different in each handset??

No, the storage is in the base unit, the handsets are enabled to access the base storage. I find this to be an advantage because entries/updates only have to be done once for access anywhere in the house.

You can do it independently on each phone. It requires a selection from a sub-sub(-sub??) menu so if your grandma is a technologically aware 55 year old, sure, but if she is a 90-year-old "Menu? What is that, dear?", she will have problems.

The model I bought in 2012 can store 70 numbers in the rejected list (which is the only list I use). But you can use wildcards, so it is much better than it sounds. It came preprogrammed to reject all 800, 888, 877, 866 and "no caller ID" numbers, which covers the majority of the unsolicited calls I get. Those occupy only 5 slots out of the 70. Whenever I get a SPAM call, I add it to the list (it takes only a few button presses if you do it right after the call comes in). After a year I filled up the memory, so I went back are erased a lot of the blocked numbers, since I was no longer getting calls from them. As a number of reviewers have observed, the unit does not pass caller ID to your home phone. But please read my review, "How to display caller ID on your phones with this device, December 30, 2013" for instructions on how to use the unit and still have caller ID on your phones.

I really can't say, I bought these all packaged together, base and 5 handsets so I didn't mix and match. Sorry, wish I could help, but I don't want to give you misinformation.

yes by pressing the "INT' button and then whatever the number of the handset that you wish to reach

That seems odd, that one handset could differentiate incoming calls as mobile or land line. The base station has a call-block feature that allows you to store up to 30 phone numbers to be blocked - which would also block those same numbers to each handset. I use this feature to filter spammers like, "Hello, this is Rachael, this your last chance to receive lower interest rates on your Credit card, etc. " and to filter political calls that relentlessly seek donations. You might go into the Call Block option and make sure phone numbers are not blocked that you did not intend to block. The feature can be accessed from any handset under Initial Settings/Call Block. If your batteries are more than a couple of years old, I'd replace them with new AAA NI-MH that can be purchased anywhere - and you will probably find batteries now have higher amp/hour capacity than your original batteries. If that does not fix the problem, you can use the new batteries in any handset that gets weak quickly during longer phone calls. Have you checked to be sure the handset is not set to "sleep" or not ring during certain hours? I use this often on the handset near my bed. Calls will come in but ring only at the base station and other handsets. It's called Silent Mode in the menu under Initial Settings. Another option would be to call Panasonic and ask if the handsets have some sort of reset procedure, but I doubt that they have a reset. Sorry I don't have any definitive answer. I have six handsets and they have been 100% reliable. However, I replaced some of the older batteries when the handset acted weird or faded during longer conversations.

Yes, it appears you can only use 2 handsets at a time and the third must remain in the base unit. See pg 20 in the Operating Instructions.

Hello, the operating manual says on page 41 the following: "you can store up to 30 phone numbers in the call block list". I hope that helps.

Yes the choice is yours....though I don't know if it's the same in all states. In NY state you can keep your phone # or get a new one and disconnect the last one - whatever you need.When you call *228 the system is gonna ask you about that - swap phones on the same # or add a new phone line.

Yes, I have two on my plan and was able to keep the same numbers from my older phones. Verizon tech support was very helpful.

The number are shared with all units, from base I persume... really like these phones, our second set of them

A base that takes 6 handsets. If you've replaced some already you will need to deregister the old ones

It doesn't seem to limit this. I've had 3 handsets active on a single call before.

Not at all. The numbers stay programmed in the phone. I did the same for my mother.

Per the manual (pg 25) "you can assign 1 phone number to each of the dial keys ([1] to [9]) on the handset." Appears as if 9 speed dial numbers can be added. I personally never used speed dial which is why I looked this up. Hope this helps.

Other phones of the same model can be synced with the base. Up to a maximum amount.

I'm not sure how many numbers it holds, but we have 23 numbers on our phone. Hope this info is helpful.
