I'm not the original poster, but I think this will not work. Just changing 
the Calling Number (where the callerid field ends up in the isdn setup 
message) to nothing will most of the time just make the pstn provider set 
it to the default. In fact, setting the Calling Number outside your did 
will normally make the pstn set the main number as the caller id.

Isdn provides a means to supress caller id with a similar effect to what 
you can get on an analog line by dialing a prefix. I think this is what 
the original poster is after.
