See my other comment, but 10 digits is what you want. "outpulse" is a
interesting way of putting it. Of course I went through some interesting
times dealing with our telco in getting them to use terminology that was
appropriate to the circuit we where ordering.

not sure on this one.

May want to include your T1 card model number(T100P,T400P) too so if
they want to check up on the FCC cert they can easily.

If you look in /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf you will see the options. Looks
like you need national, but I don't know what version.
