980 SSB + Roger Beep

[SIX-SHOOTER]

I am glad the OP got his answer, for me if I hear a RB on the ham bands I ignore that operator. I hear them on 2 meters a lot as some ops think its a cool feature on their Baofengs.

I don’t communicate with anyone on any band that has any noise toys including a roger beep.I have the ability to turn off our local repeaters so I will ask anyone who should come on them to turn off the Roger Beep and if they don’t then I will turn them off so they won’t be using them. I know everyone will not agree with that decision but it has not been needed since nobody has ever came onto the repeaters with a Roger Beep so far.One part of being on Amateur Radio is not hearing the noise toys and the reasons why the 11 meter band has been named the Children’s Band.I expect it there but I will never tolerate it on any Amateur Radio Band.

I find the Roger beep necessary... edit...sometimes all you can hear is the beep....

I sometimes do something similar when I see people in a parking lot using their remote keyer to make their vehicle beep so they can find it.

When they push their button, so do I and MY car beeps.

being friendly has it's own reward​

Here’s a reason to be annoyed. Here’s an example of annoying. Here’s an example of a friggin’ train wreck.

OP isn’t trying to be annoying. Certainly not on this level. I’m oddly intrigued by this, how do you say?, ah yes... POS.

No need for a roger beep on a repeater anyway.. dont most have a courtesy tone..

It’s been announced many times on one of our repeaters that touch tone commands on this system serve no purpose, yet some of the same people feel the urge to play around with their multifunctional keypad anyway. Maddening… Sometimes I wish those keypad mics were only sold as an extra, but they became a standard on many rigs. I'm old school. Mics are more reliable without all that extra garbage anyway.

Heh, heh!

When the repeater does this it's a "courtesy beep".

When your radio does this, it's a hated "good-buddy beep".

Go figure.

It looks like by what you posted it piggybacks onto the circuit but I just got home from the dentist and I’m kinda loopy right now.

Give me awhile to come back to earth and I’ll look again. Or someone else chime in and offer advice on this.

kinda did you say SITH PIMP?
