asterisk users - Dec 2004 - BT100 how to pickup a parked call

Does anyone know why the bt100 cannot park and pickup
a parked call?

attendant announces the call is parked at extension 701

but the call cannot be retrieved by any other phone.

also, the bt100 constantly rings when the phone is
hung up after parking.

anyone experienced this?

using the basic features.conf

[general]
parkext => 700                  ; What ext. to dial to park
parkpos => 701-709              ; What extensions to park calls on
context => parkedcalls          ; Which context parked calls are in
parkingtime => 60               ; Number of seconds a call can be parked for

pickupexten = *8                ; Configure the pickup extension.  Default 
is *8

Have you got 'include => parkedcalls' in the bt100's context ?
