[TenTec] OT: two tone generation for SSB fault detection

[jack]

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.
