Cause code 28 means "Invalid Number Format", and, if you're sure the 
number is correct, is often a case of you sending the wrong Type Of 
Number (TON) when setting up the call.

Take a look at your pridialplan setting in zapata.conf - try "unknown" 
first, then other options until you find what works.

A very very handy list I keep close to hand:
