Exactly. Additionally, the fact that you see a + in your CallerID is
often because your mobile phone automatically fills it in, as well as
the 1 (when the call is US).

Don't worry about "standard", because a series of various google
searches confirmed that while there is a standard defined for HOW
callerid is sent (for the various mediums and countries), there is
definitely NOT one for number presentation.

The proper way to send callerid number is 10 digit (from NANPA
numbers), no preceding 1 or + as this is handled by the provider to
the END USER if at all
