Hello, I agree with Damon's comments below. Just for information. Eicon do have the Diva Server Analog range of cards that will work with asterisk. You can plug these into Analog lines and then use them with Asterisk via the CAPI interface of the Diva Server driver.
If you have CLIP (The Caller ID service) on the analog line you can get the calling party number indicated to asterisk. It is also possible to assign a number to each line in the driver, that will be shown as the Called Party Number in Asterisk. However, it would be better to get your T1 working.

Analog DID trunks are problematic at best, and not supported as far as I have seen in asterisk. Most reliable DID trunks are 4 wire, not 2 wire. They require a special DID trunk interface and I have not seen one for asterisk. While there are 2 wire DID trunks form some telcos, they are a joke. ISDN BRI (2B+D) is also a viable solution as multiple numbers can be routed to an ISDN BRI line - call your telco and see if they will do multiple numbers on ISDN and then look at the capi cards for use with asterisk like the DIVA series from EICON. I have no personal experience with them but many others do.
