I had a good time with this one.  I decided to be both sides of the skype call.

Hi all,

I'm using Windows - I think I have the Audio Repeater, Audacity, and Skype settings as directed - I was able to record 2-way telephony with Skype lady -  my volume is OK - the Skype volume is very low - I looked in the Volume control and the Control panel and think I have internal Mic all the way up - also in audacity and in Skype... any suggestions?

Thanks!!
