Walt,
Sounds to me like the automatic shut-off alarm. When the radio has been on
for half an hour with no activity, it sounds those beeps to let you know
it's about to shut itself off. If you hit any button on the radio before it
shuts off the timer resets to 30 minutes again. I believe you can change
that in the menus. It's designed to prevent your battery from running down
in the event you forget the rig is on. That's easy to do since its
squelched and quiet if there is no activity on your frequency. Lou
