Where Is It Written...

Hi:

Where is it written that the radio is supposed to 'blank' out every few minutes or so when you are left a voice mail message?


Is this programmable by you? By Your Carrier? By MB Service?


So let it be written...

Normally any handsfree set has a "Mute Wire" connected to the radio, which switches the radio to MUTE, when a phone call or any other message activates the phone. ,Just try to find the wire and cut it and the radio/CD stays on even if the phone rings. It has nothing to do with the cell phone provider, but to do with the radio and the handsfree set.

The "blanking out" is what you get if you have your handset set up to provide an audible reminder when you have voice mail. That momentary silence is your handset beeping (or vibrating or whatever) and your audio muting.
