Hi, Again, Linda:

Thanks for this information.  Since I will be talking with my audiologist at 
Hopkins, today, I will share it with her.  Meanwhile, after we had our 
discussion on this topic a few weeks back, I tried a few of the weaker 
repeaters here in Baltimore with my Cochlear BAHA on and off and was able to 
repeat similar problem on the weaker ones.  Haven't been on EchoLink lately.
