I was thinking of something just along those lines the other day.  All you'd 
have to do is send a short signal to block/jam the legit one sent by the phone
company, and then send yours afterwards, if the the whole transaction only takes
a few tenths of a second, you'd still have time to spoof a signal between rings.
You could change the date and time or your number.  Somehow I love the idea of 
people calling me back and reaching the White House :>.  Since your phone can
transmit to the other line before the phone is picked up, it should be quite 
easy to implement this.  Just have your machine send the jam & spoof every time
you dial.  just press a key before you dial the last number in the number you're
trying to reach.  Then once the jammer hears that you've dialed a number on the
phone keypad, it would jam for enough time to cancel the legit signal, and then 
transmit the number/combo of your choice.  Anyone in a caller id zone wanna try
it?
