And what does this misterious message convey? Well I know not. The forum of olde will not tell and the manual of knowledge will not speak to me. If any of my brothers in battle, we merry few will tell me the meaning then I shalt show exceeding grattitude for your wise utterings.

The dashlight of misterious messages does not show any misterious messages while the gong does it's gonging. I wish they would call it a feakin BEEP.

three strikes of the gong means the hour is upon us...ussually about 15 sec before the hour.The obc will have a litlle .))) speaker type symbol I think pressing the S/R button when no particular mode is selected will toggle the hour chime on and off

Freak, I knew it was somthing like that, I checked the time and it was closer to 5 mins off the hour so I thought couldnt be. I wonder if there is also a setting for having the beep go off +/- a length of time. Thanks heaps. I will take note of the exact time when it goes again.
