Not sure why you would want to put the channel name into the
caller ID name in the first place.

Thanks all. As far as why the channel name is in the caller ID, I
don't know. I'm certainly not doing it intentionally. I don't have
any code in the dialplan that even touches the CallerID, so I guess
Asterisk is doing somehow when the Name part of the CallerID is
unknown... Either that or my Snom 300 phones are picking the wrong
info to use for CallerID.<br>
