▪ Your Caller ID display device can store the phone numbers of people who called, even while you were out. You can easily review these numbers and return their calls.

Caller ID with Call Waiting: When combined, Caller ID with Call Waiting allows you to see who is calling when you are on the phone and you can decide whether or not to take the second call.

Caller Name: The latest enhancement from Blackduck Telephone Company, puts a name with an incoming - call telephone number on the display unit next to your phone. You'll know instantly who the caller is and whether or not you want to answer the call. When you know who the caller is - whether it's business, social or your child's friend - you know just how to answer the call. What's more, a date and time log keeps track of the calls you missed while you were away. So when you return, you have the opportunity to contact callers you may have been expecting.

Repeat Dialing: Allows you to dial a code to have your phone continuously attempt to redial a busy number that you tried to call. When the destination line is free, you will be alerted with a special ring, and a call will automatically be made.
