Most countries have legal restrictions on the retry strategy for 
automatic dialers; it is possible that these limits have been put there
for legal reasons, if they are  real restrictions.  I'd advise consulting
your telephone company before setting such an aggressive number of attempts.

(Fast retries can waste network resources, or overload it, as well 
as exacerbating the effect of slow retries.  Large numbers of retries to
a wrong number may hit a "little old lady" and cause real fear in 
a domestic subscriber that doesn't understand what is happening.)
