Intersting - but what I'm observing is that MoH to No. 1 stops at the 
point when No. 2 is asked to speak their name - if they take a long time, 
(eg. pressing 3 to review, etc.) the No.1 is left in silence until No. 2 
accepts their name recording... After that, it's fine as others join as 
theires no MoH, however it's just the "pregnant pause" for No. 1 after 
they've already been listening to MoH when waiting for No. 2 that I was 
curious about...

Cheers,

Gordon
