[asterisk-ss7] sending nondigit char

[Kaloyan Kovachev]

After a hint from a provider who is sending '*' instead of 'E' and the changes
below it worked, but i am not sure is it right to associate '*' with 0x0e, but
this is what i am receiving as corresponding byte for 'Address signals', which
is improperly terminated on the first digit, so the string is empty
