[asterisk-users] Get calling channel before pickup

[Mojo with Horan & Company, LLC]

I must be not understanding your question very well, because it seems 
like an easy answer :)

In the following Dial event, we have Source and Destination.  Like Eric 
said, Destination can contain multiple devices, so can't be trusted. 
But Source should only contain one device....  Does it have data you can 
use?

Moj

Event: Dial
Privilege: call,all
Source: SIP/112-09823a58
Destination: SIP/118-0986d4c0
CallerID: 112
CallerIDName: Mojo
SrcUniqueID: 1181061393.53
DestUniqueID: 1181061393.54

P.S.  I think you meant you wanted the channel that is HEARING the 
ringing, not the channel that is IN the ringing state....?
