Greetings. Any way to have an audible alert on a call "double" or "dupe"?

Thanks for very nice OSX contest app!

Do you mean a sound after entering a call and pressing the space bar? This should be easy to implement. Even for new ones a short voice message could be helpful.

Do you have a good sound handy?

Hello Tom
There should be a switch to turn these sounds off...
Otherwise there will be a lot off qrm on the bands during phone contests ;)
and my wife will go crazy too.

Thanks a lot for your efforts on ham software for the mac!

It will be switchable! :D Currently I test a version (not public yet) with a voice announcement. Sounds good yet, and I would prefer this. Only a sound or warning tone could be confusing.

:o :o :o And for our friends using a swiss keyboard, the key to start the exchange will be selectable as well. :o :o :o

This should be fun to try. I have downloaded the BETA and will hopefully test this weekend.

Thanks!
