TexasMirty,
You started out with 0 db attenuation on the output side in your first
posting (subj. hdr: Voice Port echo 5/2/06). You're actually adding a
lot of gain by setting it to +5db. I'd kick that back down to 0db.
Keep the input gain at -3db for now.
Tell us a little about how the call gets to the destinations
experiencing these calls. Are these over an IXC (LD carrier)? If
you're still having problems with the -3 in, 0 out, then I'd start
looking elsewhere as a source of trouble. For example, are these
leased-lines (T-1s) that were ordered-up between distant offices?
They may have been ordered w/o echo cancellation treatment, for
example. If you're running both data and voice like on a West to East
Coast PRI or T-1, then you'd have to understand how it's provisioned
from the carrier.
