I appreciate the attended transfer capabilities of asterisk, I just
thought that is what the transfer button was for.  I need to know how
to allow a user to juggle two different calls on hold without
accidentally connecting them together.  On some phone systems the
sequence:

1.  Receive Call #1 and place on hold
2.  Place Call #2 and hang up

Does not connect Call #1 & #2 together.

Is there a different sequence I should use in this situation?
