Query: Too much static

I got this phone from a friend. I thought it would be a nice upgrade to my existing eight year old GE phones. I was appalled at how poor the sound quality is. As just about everyone else has stated, the static gets unbearable once you are more that ten feet from the base unit. Pretty poor. I could use my GE phones outside a good 100' from the house with no problem. These phones are trash. I have never had Uniden before. I can only assume this model is representative of their entire product line; as such I will never buy Uniden.
