asterisk users - Oct 2005 - Trying to genereate dial tone, but stop after first digit dialed.

I seem to be missing something here. Basically I'm trying to do what a 
full CO would do in terms of *70 to disable call waiting.
I have a *70 exten setup, it does the work to set the extension to not 
take in a second call, then does a playtones(dialrecall). This works 
except that all digits dialed after the *70 have the tone still playing 
until the dialplan kicks back in for the new exten dialed. Does somebody 
have a work around for this? I'd prefer to not use Background.

Thanks, -Jon

I don't know if this will relate to your specific
issue, but I had problems with system not responding
to numbers I pressed right away when dialing
internally-i.e. the dialtone did not stop like it
should when system reads numbers pressed (DTMF).

I found that adjusting the rxgain and txgain in the
etc/asterisk/zapata.conf file affected the responses. 
The defaults for both are 0.0 and apparantly represent
percentage. Too high makes feedback, too low and
system will not respond.

With my TDM11B I have rxgain at 6.0 and txgain at 3.0
right now, but I am still working out playback volume
and IVR responses.

that's all I got
