    Does he want the single noise toy or the one you can upload different sound files to it?

    I'm asking for a friend. He had a single roger beep and a double beep on a 3 position switch. To the left 1 beep and to the right the double beep. In the center no beeps. He says he can't find them to have his radio guy install them. Hope this is a little more clear.

    For myself I would like to find someone who knows what an older import Formac radio is. The last guy to look at it said it needs a part on the receive which he was not able to locate. I would love to resurrect this radio as it was awesome.

    Anyone with a soldiering iron can build one. Roger beep(s) was the first thing I worked on way back in the 70's, simple circuit to design and build. The schematic is out on the internet - has been since 1995.

    Formac radios used different surplus chassis'. Starting with the Formac 20 all the way through the 700, most common was the 88 if I remember right.

    The info is there, any tech can find the info if they want. Most of the parts - transistors and such - are all still out on the market but you have to track it down.
