All this talk of CLID has raised a number of questions I have not seen addressed in these sundry bytes. What sort of CLID will an outgoing WATS line generate? If it is out only, what would happen if you tried the CLASS auto call-back with it? As "boiler room operations" would be likely to operate by out-WATS, would CLID really benefit the recipient of the call? There are a number of other one-way type lines that would also render the CLID useless, such as pay phones that don't accept incoming calls, cellular outgoing trunks, Airfone trunks, (and many PBX's). What about special services like the marine operator, or the LD or local operator for that matter? Anyone have experience with these, or any design folks care to comment?
