Gigaset C430A Trio
My telephone connection is in a nonsensical place under the sofa. So I have to leave the base station there and can't use it. Do I need this station (I assume it's the biggest of the three?) for the answering machine, or is the answering machine answerable on the handset and therefore not essential to have the main base within reach? Thanks!
