This field pertains only to CCRON and QSIG VALU coverage calls redirected
over end-to-end ISDN facilities. Some cellular phone providers send an ISDN
PROGRESS message with the Progress Indicator field set to ‘inband information’
when a cellular phone is unavailable to receive a call. In these circumstances, the
message indicates that an announcement is being played to the originating party
and we should move the call immediately to the next available coverage point.

that there will be instances when this choice leads to inappropriate call handling.
