K3; Eric, Wayne, a feature for the wish list

[Richard Fjeld]

Dave,
This round-table that I was asked to place a beep consisted of three Flex users and myself.

We have had our answer from Eric about this.

The beep would have been optional.  I'm sorry folks were negative about this, but I can see their point. I personally don't think the beep would have been more than a fly-speck in the pepper considering the language I hear and, yes, music to drown out nets, and the tuner-uppers on qso's.  Then, there are the guys that are splattering several K wide.  The list goes on.

I'll just go and have my own little 'pity-party'.
Rich, NØCE

You mean your K3 is the only rig in your round table without an
irritating "roger-beep"?

In all seriousness, there are many microphones intended for the CB market that can produce
a beep when you release the ptt. Just google "CB microphone beep". As a cw operator, I
don't see anything wrong with SSB guys transmitting a beep once in awhile!

Guys - this thread has been close twice. No more posts on beeps, please.

In general, when a thread has been closed, do not make any more last

There is a very simple and time honored tradition that will solve your
problem...  Just say "over" when you are finished transmitting.
