The basic SKYPAGE service has a page recall function that holds pages for up to 99 hours. Missed pages or a review of recent pages can be retrieved by the beeper owner by dialing into the system (1-800-SKY-PAGE) and accessing the functions menu. Additional features include time of day page, priority page, group page, etc. We have had 14 or so of their units for about a year now and have had no complaints with the service.
