I've been running with this patch as it fits my operating style.

And here are the audio files:

So when transmit watchdog pops up an audio warning triggers too.

And when a message comes in on the current offset there is also an audio warning. In particular this one warning me when a non-standard reply comes in or somebody else got the CQ slot calling.

So…I can work on other things while CQ'ing and such and hear when I need to pay attention again since it's running on a 2^nd computer while I'm busy working on another.

I think somebody mentioned audio being a problem on some other OS's?

What's the consensus on audio being good/bad? This should obviously be an option under Reporting. Should I go ahead and propose patch for that too?

The biggest issue IMHO is that many users have only one sound card and use VOX !

We would have to be very careful to ensure that any local audio messages were not being sent to the same sound card as audio intended for on air transmission.

Perhaps a small application could be written to do this as an add-on using the UDP messages. A message to indicate that the watchdog has triggered, probably just a new field in the status message.
