+1, but only if it is a 250 ms 2,475 Hz tone...

Ha, very good

It would be more difficult to implement 2,525 Hz as it needs to be sent before the transmission started.

Strange you should post this as I'd been discussing the 'Quindar tones' with some amateur mates earlier this week.

That would be cute. But to understand the full impact of that statement one must be my age and familiar with Science Fiction film and video of our era. Very early on two things became absolutely essential to an SF video or film, an adolescent sidekick and an overly cute mascot. J Michael Straczynski spelled out the doom for this in "Babylon 5". "There shall be no cute," he said. Then he more or less proved it. A cute appeared and was summarily dealt with in one episode. Cute is for wannabes not for real fans. In my own inimitable overly arrogant opinion, "If you want cute, you must commit that sin on your own time with your own hardware, software, blood, sweat, and tears."

I've written the first part of the voice keyer, a beep will be part of this coding. I do want a voice keyer, beep not quite so much but it could be handy.

Hi Simon,

excellent. I agree that the voice keyer is more important.

I am looking forward to test it.

Kind regards
