Thank you all for the suggestions. I'm looking into getting groundstart lines for that installation as suggested earlier. Also, I'll try setting the outbound call routes in reverse from the inbound hunt group. I appreciate your help!

In the telephony world, this is called glare, it's most prevalent on Analog (though you can have the same thing happen with robbed-bit T1). There really isn't much you can do to prevent it, only minimize it. You need to have your inbound and outbound starting at opposite ends. If your incoming calls are coming top down, then you need to use G<your group number> in your Dial app so that outbound calls go bottom up, or vice versa.
