To clear your phone book, do a master reset:

Main Menu, Lock Secure, Secure Options (Enter 000000 for secure code,
unless you've changed it), Master Reset ...

To erase your phone number:

Press 74663#1 [FCN] [FCN]. (74663 spells phone.)
The phone will display Enter MIN, and then show your number.
Overwrite your number with all 1's (111-111-1111).
Press [STO].

The phone will then display Enter AMPS SID.
You can just press [STO].

The phone will then display Enter CDMA SID
Again, you can just press [STO]

That's it. Your're done!

Thanks a bunch. Would this also work for an analog 6500 Startac?

Dick,

I think the 74663#1 procedure will work on an older Motorola phone. I
don't think the old analog phones had a master clear command. My
Motorola Teletac analog did not have a master clear, as far as I know.
It could only store 9 numbers, so it wasn't really necessary!

Thanks. I'll try the procedure on both phones. I had to wait until
my Verizon account was closed.
