It was designated for Fedora and I took it. I can look for the later version but suspect it will not be much different? I need to try it though. I have not done any extensive trials but what little I have done has produced results similar to yours or worse. When I speak to my brother I will find out if there was any voice message on their machine ... AS you said Skype to Skype worked well but I don't know only one person using it despite there being a million users! I have no practical need for Skype but wanted to try it. I am impressed with VOIP, Skype and Echolink both provide good voice communications computer to computer. Thanks for your observations.
