Look to hack the record app and listen for silence.

Sir,

Thanks for the reply. I have tried the callprogress in zapata and it was not
reliable for me.
I have tried the backgrounddetect and it does not give me busy indications.

Dialogic had a callprocess function that gave busy status, waited for voice
energy (some one saying hello)
so you new when the phone was answered etc...

I am not finding an all encompasing similar function in asterisk yet.

Any further suggestions are welcome.

Jerry

The problem is that there is no reliable call progress on ANALOG
lines. Asterisk just set the channel as ANSWERED or UP as soon as a
call is placed.

You can try enabling callprogress in /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf , but
you might have unreliable progress detection and many false hangups.
The comments on zapata.conf state:

; On trunk interfaces (FXS) it can be useful to attempt to follow the
progress
; of a call through RINGING, BUSY, and ANSWERING.   If turned on, call
; progress attempts to determine answer, busy, and ringing on phone lines.
; This feature is HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL and can easily detect false answers,
; so don't count on it being very accurate.  Also, it is ONLY configured for
; standard U.S. tones

You might also want to take a look at application BackgroundDetect, just
issue:

show application BackgroundDetect

from the CLI

Good luck,
