Righto,
When off world and the SG teams dial home, prety much instantly as soon as they push the big red button, the wormhole is formed and off they go through the gate. So it stands to reason that as soon as it is formed on their end, that the receiving gate has also 'kawooshed' in its preperation to receive them.
However quite often in the SGC they get an 'unauthorised incoming wormhole' warning, which tends to be several seconds before the 'kawoosh' and often shows the chevrons lighting up and locking over the course of several seconds before the wormhole is established.
Now I am curious as to how the receiving gate knows it is going to get called, seemingly before the sending gate has finished being dialled??
Simple analogy would be you pick up the phone to dial your mum and after you have completed dialling all her numbers, her phone rings.
