run "show application dial" in the cli. It should explain the options, including the "r" option. > By the way, it is a PRI E1, with 30 bchannels and 1 dchannel.

The pstn has the option of either generating progress tones locally or allowing the remote end to send them. Since asterisk always claims "In band progress tines available", it has to generate them if the destination does not. If the destination is a pbx it will usually fill the back channel with progress tones (i.e. ringback) which will pass streight through asterisk. For destinations that does not (such as most voip phones) asterisk has to fill in the back channel with progress tones. Using or not using the audio in this reverse channel is up to the originating telco.
