you give a fine way to make a two tone generator on the cheap Marinus. if i ever get a mike i will keep that in mind. no mikes for radio in this shack--only CW and PSK31 once in a blue moon. oh...i do have a computer mike for Echolink but it has been used only to talk with ZL1ALA when we can't connect via CW.

I mentioned in an earlier posting in how to generate two tone on the cheap by using the computer and DSSF software.

However I am not thrilled in attaching my expensive laptop to a rig, escpecially when one relies for his living on the computer.

DSSF has an option to record for up to approx 10 minutes. I enabled this facility and generated 700 and 1900 Hz test tones. Later I cut an audio CD which I then played on a portable CD player which did feed the microphone input. Worked like a charm and with an oscilloscope the problem was quickly resolved.
