its a telex m-40 that i have had kicking around for a long time. still, i could try a test on my daughters M$ and see if it works
better there...

other Skype folks say they hear me faintly, but a lot of static; i have tried the input control, but it doesnt seem to help.

maybe i should try the arecord with it, ...

thx for your time, jackc...

Can you confirm that the microphone is working on another computer? If
that is the case, it is not the microphone that is causing issues if it
is plugging in using the regular mini-jack.
