My IAX connections soldier on over links with latency varying from 30msec 
to 1000msec+, with packet loss up to 10%.

You hear the effects, but you don't lose your connection.

Without the jitter buffer, whatever chan_iax2.c receives, you hear.  If 
you don't hear anything, either the sender didn't send anything, or your 
network connection is gone.
