Got that
Understand that my comments were NOT meant as a critisizm of Russ or 
anyone in particular.
All of us have some difficulty in communicating something we know well 
to those who aren't as far along in their understanding.

In reading the patch file, one of the few items I understand is a 
reference to asterisk-1.2.16
Should this be edited to asterisk-1.2.17 to apply to 1.2.17??

This seems to be a change in the later zaptel versions.
Mine does seem to misdial too often.
And it is pulse dialing into an ITEC selector, which SHOULD be more 
forgiving.

That is too bad, since not everyone has that choice.

Thanks again, Russ and Max
