[Asterisk-Users] Re: Grandstream 100 sidetone

[Chris Albertson]

Stephen I think hit it on the mark.  I could not figure
out how sidetone could be heard as an echo and how it
could be loud.  On my GS phone the sidetome is very low
but with zero delay.

The best way to test the side tome is to talk to the
voicemail or record application running on a local
Asterisk server.  "Record" does not send audio back
so anything you e hear is "real sidetone".  I find
it to be decent quality but to low in volume.
