Why would you want to? They are annoying and very hard to understand.

Well thats exactlly why i want echo.... To show people how to use their echo boards... they are only hard to understand if they have it set wrong.... it should be echoing one time only a split second after what you say, to give you a clearer more full voice

When someone runs with me and they have the echo on, I ask they turn it completely off or just call me on the phone when they want to stop.

well the few people ive heard who have had it set right, it deff. helps when your just bairly picking up the signal. also when someones got it set right you shouldn't really be able to tell much.... i have it so i wanna install it anyway. if its annoying someone i can easily turn it off.

If the echo is set correctly it shouldn't be a problem.

ditto - as you state if set correctly they can be a +, but the problem is most don't know how to and so therefore they wind up being a PITA

I think he said echo boards are annoying....
If you know how to properly "use" an echo board, you should know how to install it.
Personally, I think the proper way to use one, is to tie it on the end of fishing line about 8 inches below a baited hook.
