TNX for the additional information. I have heard it in safe mode but not this many days in a row. But I have only been on the birds since the beginning of the year. I was worried it was a terminal problem. 73 Mike K4MIA

Just a note that this usually happens toward the end of the time when it is out of the sun (in eclipse). It should resume regular transponder mode when it re-enters the sun. There seems to be an odd bug which I have not yet figured out such that under some circumstances it stays in safe model and has to be commanded back on.
