[Asterisk-Users] Monitor does not like variable subsitutions {Scanned}

[David Shaw]

Here is what I use for outbound calls.

exten => _1NXXNXXXXXX,1,SetVar(CALLFILENAME=${EXTEN:1}-${TIMESTAMP})
exten => _1NXXNXXXXXX,2,Monitor(wav,${CALLFILENAME},m)
exten => _1NXXNXXXXXX,3,Dial(${TRUNKL3}/${EXTEN})
