Does an "echo" call testing mechanism exist for POTS landline voice phone calls?

In Skype there is an 'echo call testing service'.



I want to check a set of POTS telephones and telephone microphone headsets.



Of course, I can call a friend and ask "how does this sound?" for all the permutations and combinations - but, having used the convenient Skype service, this question is whether a similar land-line POTS call-testing service exists for dialed phone numbers?



Q: Does a POTS "echo" call testing service even exist?


I call my answering machine, leave a test message, and then call back to play back the message. Same with VoIP voicemail. I also have some "permanent" voicemail messages with test tones, pink noise, and frequency sweeps. It took a while to get the levels in the ballpark, but it works well enough for my purposes.

Wow. That's unique! It's a good idea given that, so far, I can't find a VOIP/POTS audio call testing service.
