How do they manage that piece of magic?  The handset doesn't plug into a
wall socket.  Do you mean they use the AC line as an antenna?  Even that is
a little bizarre.  Many clock-radios use an additional wire in the AC cord
as an antenna but they do not use the AC wiring.  Most of the cordless
phones that I have seen in the stores have telescopic rod antennas.
