Not a peep, either with or without using the monitor command.   I've
been using this system for around four months during which time it has
performed flawlessly, running through 20K calls.

Done.

To avoid wrapping, I've posted the results from my tests to this link:

The first call is the dialplan I have been using which works perfectly.

The second call, which worked, was the first attempt to use Monitor(),
after having restarted Asterisk.

The third call is another attempt at getting a recording.   It, and any
subsequent call, fails miserably.

I'm open for any suggestions.  Thanks very much David.
