    What options are available to me,
    when I have a heavy phone Load ?

I have 1 phone line and many phones and an answering machine.
The signal is weak, just by having the phones plugged in
  NOT off-hook or picked-up !

Are there items on the Market to boost the signal ?
  Bell Canada said to look at Radio Shack for a booster
  so i did,
  NONE at Radio Shack !

I am told a phone load of 80 is tops.
I have a minimum load of 40 NOT counting the 2 unknowns
listed below, and the signal is weak.

Cannot hear the person
    Load
    20     phone 1
    11     phone 2
    09     phone 3
    ??     phone 4
    ??     answering machine


And yes, the Answering machine makes the biggest difference.
When it is not plugged in the signal increases the most.

Any ideas on how to have
  4 phones and
  1 answering machine and little signal loss ?
Any boosters on the market ? (by who, address ....)

Comments welcomed.
