Panasonic KX-TG6071M Cordless Phone Questions & Answers
KXTG-6071B static and popping noice from the base
Some Panasonic cordless phones come with up to five handsets each will need to be properly adjusted. You may need to set the main handset to synchronize with the base unit plugged into the telephone wall jack and assign special configuration numbers to the other handsets in order to properly identify each one within a specified location. One handset left in the turned on mode may make it impossible to place calls with the any of the other handsets. This will continue until either the battery dies or fails on the handset or the phone is switched off and replaced in its charger for charging again. Synchronize the main handset by pressing the MENU button on the handset, then pressing the down button IN order to select the number you wish to assign to that handset. Repeating this process if you have already done so will greatly decrease the level of errors experienced with panasonic phones MORE USEFUL INFORMATION FOR ALL YOUR ELECTRONICS When troubleshooting these units, there are always several variables to consider. First check to see what last occurred with the unit such as did the children play video games, did the electricity go out due to bad weather. You may see that there are many possibilities but let's focus on what occurred last to the unit. Once we determine what happened last, we may isolate the actual cause of the problem. The actual cause may be associated with projection issues, older versions (Picture tube), interference from devices located nearby, and even a radio turned on and located really close to your unit. This is normally known as electromagnetic interference to electronics and is very common with the error you have provided today. Please continue to look for anything EXTERNAL to the unit before looking at the internal components. I have been working on these a long time so feel free to follow up with me.

I have static thru the handsets... i see in the
Move it away from other electronics, TV's microwave ovens, etc. Try it in a different part of the house to see if the static is location sensitive. It must be getting interference from someplace. The manual should describe a procedure for changing channels although that may not solve the problem unless the "static" is an interfering RF signal. If this is a remote handset problem, it may be too far from the base or the signal is obstructed by something. 5.8GHz does not have the range of the lower frequency phones.

Expandable handset will not register
It sounds like the base unit has other handsets registered to it. This is why you are getting the message "All Handsets Registered". You will need to reset the base unit in order to register your two handsets.
Hopefully this will help you. Put the phone in an easily accessible spot where you can plug it in and unplug it easily. Unplug the phone, wait a few seconds, and plug it in again. Now, unplug it again, and before you plug it in once more, hold down the Locator button as you plug it in and all lights should flash on. It should emit a long beep, which means it has reset. If not, you will need to unplug it once more and hold down the Locator button again as you plug it in.
Once it beeps, it should allow you to add your handsets. If there is nothing on the handset display, press the off button, menu, then 001. It should then read "Press LOCATOR on base for 3 sec, Then press ok". At this point, you will need to hold down the Locator button until it flashes before hitting okay. The handset will be registered when it reads "Handset 1 Registered".
If this doesn't work, I would call Panasonic.
Good Luck!

KX-TG6071M 5.8 GHz talking caller id not working
Hi trinigirl, You should not have to do anything to make the caller id information come through. There is no programming to perform for the regular caller id identification on your display after the second ring (it takes at least one ring cycle for the digital information to pass through). Your model also has the talking caller id function, which will announce in English the callers name or a custom name you can prepare in the phone book of handset number 1. With all that said, you are not getting caller id showing after the second ring, then your phone is bad (which is pretty rare for this symptom), or your phone line still does not have caller id activated. To troubleshoot your problem you need another phone line with working caller id and/or a different phone that is known good to pass caller id. That way you can interchange the phones/lines to see if it is your line or your phone. My guess it is your line somehow, though I have fixed phones that won't pass caller id, but rarely. If it is your phone, try rebooting it, thats about all you can do short of sending it in for repair. Let me know how it goes. CG
