asterisk users - Jan 2006 - SOLVED: SIP phones can't pick up incoming call on analog (PSTN) trunk - signalling problem?

Yo!
I changed callprogress to no, and in wcfxo.c source around line 334 i changed 
the value 32000 and -32000 to 10000 and -10000 because it had something to do 
with the DC voltage when it was ringing.
I found reference here (http://www.voipuser.org/forum_topic_1791.html) with an 
interesting diagram of wiring that was incorrect for sending voltage to a 
phone or something like that.

So put it in your asterisk knowledge bases.
Cheers, have a good weekend

A very good day to you all,

We can't get the phones to pick up on an incoming call on analog trunks.
We're using the digium products in the box, with snom phones internally.

This is the output from the asterisk console:

My experience with asterisk isn't with analog signalling and it has been a
long time since I looked at zapata.conf with a keen eye.  I've never not
been
able to pick up a call so I'm a little baffled and that's why i'm
presuming
it's something to do with signalling.

Thanks
