Alarm can transmit everywhere

[ea7hjb]

Hi,

Even if TX is not fully unlocked, ALARM can do TX everywhere (including airband) if menu option 45 is set to "TONE".

Just for the info, 1750 Hz does show "TX DISABLE" as expected, so that function is OK.

Thank you for your effort and time and best regards.

I don't use that option, but if I remember correctly the tone option is simply radio playing the tone through a speaker. It doesn't transmit anything, does it?

Hello. If option is set to "SITE" it will only play on the speaker. If set to "TONE" it will do both TX and Speaker (switching between the two option each cycle).

If set to "TONE", it will not obey the TX table and will emit everywhere.

I remember I posted this exact same bug on 1of11 GitHub, and she fixed it, in case you can check that there and save yourself some time :)

Ok thank, I'll check that then.

In case it helps.

This alarm function (IMVHO) is one to be removed and its memory used for better functions.
I have never found a use case where it is appropriate/sensible/helpful for this to even exist. Although it might be simpler to fix than remove.
