Analog phone busy after caller hangs up

[chippowell]

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I've never noticed (or been paying attention) to this behavior.

An analog phone on the CS1K receives an incoming call. The incoming caller hangs up. The phone stays in a busy state. (LD 20 STAT = BUSY, LD 80 .TRAC = LOCKOUT TN...) Is this the nature of analog? On a digital set if the incoming caller hangs up, the phone immediately goes idle again.

sounds like a bad hk switch, doing a flash as it hangs up.. if it is system wide it it a timer... years back we added ftr phd to each set to stop perm hold.. simular to what you have described... perm hold does the same thing IF the far end hangs up...

Thank you John, I have FTR PHD on the TN already. Have tested with three different sets: a Polycom Soundstation and two 2500 sets. Same deal. This is TNB:

I should clarify, the call drops once the user (called party) manually hangs up or disconnects. That's why I wonder, is this just the way analog works? The signal isn't gone until both ends release it?

Yes that's the way an analog line works. If the phone is off hook then it is busy - may be on a call, half-disconnect or lockout.
