[Asterisk-Users] Zap call bridge drops randomly

[mattf]

Would enabling Busydetect really help if Asterisk thinks it detects an
On-Hook?

You might try:
busydetect=yes
busycount=6

in the top section of zapata.conf and see if that helps. I've not
tried this on a T1, but it certainly clears up the same issue on
