[asterisk-users] unable to create channel of type 'SIP'

[Danny Nicholas]

You can dial out from an unregistered SIP peer, but you can't receive a call
or call that peer.

Good catch.
Unfortunately, I actually did have it in there as dialGSM, I just copied
from the wrong version of the file when I copied and pasted it here.

This is what I get from sip show peers:
Name/Username: IMSI262422146099205
Host: (Unspecified)
Dyn: D
Forceport: 0
ACL:
Port: Unmonitored
Status

... same for the other IMSI...

2 sip peers [Monitored: 0 online, 0 offline  Unmonitored: 0 online, 2
offline]
