I'd rather have a KCIRMNKY3 which is effectively an outboard indicator of some event that requires the attention of the operator.
Plug into the data port and anytime pin 3 is asserted then the Circus Monkey crashes his cymbals together. CONFIG->MNKYRATE-> sets the delay between cymbal crashes.. 2000ms, 1500ms 1000ms 500ms. There's a mod kit alrady planned to replace the eyes of the monkey with LEDs so they can blink either with the crashing cymbals or offset. That's just a different valued capacitor, check the Elecraft mod-kit page for information. I'm expecting the full featured fuzzy fur KCIRMNKY3 to bre ready by Dayton. Is it too early to pre-order? (Kit only) -jeff ps. this in no way is expressing insensitivy to the visually impaired operator. my son is virtually blind.
