Yes, we had SS-7 switches at Key Bank (it was all SS-7)!
I also had a fine Stromberg Carlson DCO that did amazing things with
CallerID while at Payline Systems where intelligent motel dialers and
programmable payphones picked our switch and our billing systems (linux)
charged exorbinate rates to caller's credit cards (until mandated out of
business by the PUC).
Also did similar things with BlackBox "test" devices and DTMF signalling in
the early days while at Wygant Scientific (Voicemail on Mitel and other
Analog PBX systems for Trimet and Washington Kids).
