[App_rpt-users] phoning in

Can I ask one of the Asterisk gurus to help with some syntax? I would like to arrange so that my IP phone can dial an extension on my asterisk box and be put on hold while the repeater announces the incoming call - much the same as the portal does - except just locally here. I think this would require a dial plan extension that uses ParkAndAnnounce() where the announcement is made using an Rpt function - then just waiting a certain amount of time for someone on the repeater to activate the auto-patch and pick up the call. My chances of guessing the right syntax for this are infinitesimal, so I would appreciate some help. Many thanks and season's greetings Ken @ 27021 27061 28204
