I'm trying to send CallerID info to a MetaSwitch system over a PRI. The MetaSwitch gets the info exactly as it is sent by Asterisk, but I think it might be having trouble with the Hexadecimal b1 that is being sent just before the first character of the CallerID Name.<BR>
<BR>
Does anyone know what the significance is of the b1 being sent here?<BR>
<BR>
Or, is there a way to make Asterisk not send the b1 character as a test?<BR>
<BR>
I've pasted a portion of the PRI debug trace below.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks for your help.<BR>
<BR>
