It is possible for your asterisk box to detect your callerid provided it is available on your asterisk line, and use that as a pattern match on incoming calls to direct you to a slightly different extension. From there you can drop a sample call in the outgoing queue and then answer the line long enough to hang it up. This should make your outgoing call be about 1 second long, and allow you positive knowledge that the asterisk system received and acknowledged your call. The sample.call file can call you back then and drop you in a context where you can access anything you are interested in.
