Mickey -
   Flashhook events are transmitted as either RFC2833 events or SIP 
INFO events.  The people at Welltech should have that information in 
front of them, if they claim to be SIP programmers.  I'm still 
waiting for my SIP image for the 3701A 1-FXO/1-FXS box... they 
claimed that they would have that back in April.

RFC2833 method:

INFO method:
http://www.zvon.org/tmRFC/RFC2976/Output/index.html
