As soon as ths handset s deregstered, No Radaton wll automatcally be re-actvated. The wreless connecton wll only be establshed for an ncomng or outgong call and the connecton wll be delayed by about 2 seconds. So that a handset can establsh a wreless connecton wth the base more quckly for an ncomng call, t must "lsten" to the base more often,.e. scan the envronment. Ths ncreases power usage and reduces the standby and talktme of the handset. When No Radaton s actvated, there wll be no range dsplay/range alarm on the handset.
