Question Phone Questions

1. Isn't there any way to just have the phone on without the radio or CD? I have to turn the power on the audiio to get the phone on but my system wants to either play the radio or a cd if I am not using the phone. This can't be right. What am I missing?

2. Is there any way to pic up a call waiting call and then return to the original call? I hear a beep when a call comes in when I am on the phone but how do I pic it up and then go back to the other call. Yes, I have call waiting on my phone service.

Any help appreciated.

im not sure if im right, but before, i remember reading that you either have to put the volume all the way down on the cd, or radio, or just mute it, since its a different setting for the phone....no clue on #2

Are you saying that the volume and mute on the CD and radio don't effect the phone and that the phone has it's own volume setting? That would make sense.
