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
