Bought a new cordless phone to replace one that's about 10 years old.
The old one still works but has a broken antenna and is worn looking.
Can both phones be connected to the same line (separate jacks in
different rooms) without interference or harm to the new one?

YOU CAN TRY IT!

Some MAY interfere, it depends on their operating frequency.

Cant do any harm!

Yep he could try it out as some setup works and some don't. I had 5
different cordless phones in the house at one times but when you pick up one
phone it disconnects the other. I now have (four cordless phones) one master
station and three slave phones with intercom plus one corded phone and one
fax on one line - works great.

OK, alright, I could, I have and I did! :) No interference at all.
Just like I was talking to someone right next door. Which it just so
happened I was.

But my waning middle aged memory just seemed to have something I'd read
at some point rattling around in there that said to "NEVER" hook up two
different cordless phones on the same line. This of course would have
been back in the olden days before the appearance of multiple handsets,
each with its own speakerphone, downloadable ring tones and color
animation. Can't wait to see what comes next...
