Hi Ken -- ignore the nasty replies

About Roger Beeps on Ham Radio
Tis highly frowned on
If you use it on a repeater -- sixteen+ Hams will come back and say you have
a roger beep tone
You say yeah I know
They say -- get rid of it - it sounds like CB
No FCC rules against it - but it's considered poor practice
Repeaters have a courtesy tone (beep) so your beep is not necessary

On HF - also frowned on -- if noisy conditions - just say OVER

CL -- I doubt, therefore I might be !

I am trying to adapt a CB "roger beep" mic for ham radio and there is
some odd terminology for CB mic wiring.

The CB'ers call "PTT" "transmit (TX)"

They call "audio-out" "audio" (not too bad)

They have a separate line for "receive (RX)" which some call "receive
control." What is that for? Anyone know? By testing, I know it is
not for a speaker in the mic. It shows 6 ohms to ground.
