Hi Phil,

No, the line does not have to be plugged in, the card just has to be 
setup correctly for asterisk to see it.

after you compiled zaptel and asterisk you need to do
modprobe zaptel
modprobe wcxxxx  (whichever card you have)
ztcfg -vv

this is assuming you have setup zaptel and zapata


or you could do a 'make config' in zaptel folder, then restart pc, it 
would modprobe for you.  'lsmod' would show what is loaded.
