that makes sense, I think the confusion here is that the documentation
has lots of stuff on the software ec, but not much on the hardware ones

for example to use the hardware echo can do I leave echocanceller blank
in /etc/dahdi/system.conf ?

Why doesn't dahd_cfg -vv show up the hardware ec

yes that is true, but its a home system, I will do work after falling
