a 3 second tape loop home call screener that mounts on any touch tone wall phone, instantly lifts the receiver from the hook upon a ring and plays a 3 second message to the caller that YOU record. Then it records 3 seconds from the caller, on a separate tape device using dual-tape technology to repeat back the callers name over a built-in loudspeaker. YOU decide if you are going to answer the phone!
