Because the loop is a lot tighter in that case. There is still an echo, but because it's so quickly returned, it's not very noticeable. In the case of going through Asterisk, there is a very slight delay which makes the remote echo noticeable. I'm not sure if the Eastern European countries have upgraded in the past 10 years, but it used to be that if you called from the US to say, Yugoslavia (the specific case in which I noticed this), the party in the US would get a very bad echo. The party in Yugoslavia would hear no echo at all. In local calls within Yugoslavia, because the distance was so short, the echo was not noticeable. But in international calls, the echo was nearly unbearable (especially given the international long distance rates!). Since you couldn't hear the echo in that country, they never knew there was anything wrong. -Tilghman _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
