ChanIsAvail returns the channel ID plus "-<session>".
How can I edit ${AVAILCHAN} to remove this session ID, so I can use its contents in a subsequent Dial statement?
Oh, it's quite simple. You just write your own application to remove the suffix. Or you wait for someone else to write it.
Untested code. UAYOR.

I don't recall if -<session> is a fixe number of digits. If so, you can use the string manipulation features within Asterisk to cut it off. I don't have the manual reference right here with me, but note that you can put negative numbers for ${EXTEN:-1:-3} and the like, which will chop things up based on fixed positions within the string.
