Software updates?
Not to nag or anything, but I recall there were some neat features in the works for an upcoming release. Is there any news to share? We're closing in on the one-year anniversary of the current firmware release.
Re: Software updates?
...one year in which the code has been remarkably stable and error free. Kudos in the extreme for such a well designed and capable product.
Now, new features would be nice, of course...

Re: Software updates?
It has been remarkably solid, so credit where credit is due, but I know there are a few lingering issues, some of them display-related. Quite a few fixes and minor improvements have been talked up for the "next release".
Re: Software updates?
Solid, yes. How about the editor bug? When entering multiple opcode instructions and hitting <- then a couple lines are removed. That's a serious bug.
Re: Software updates?
First tone of the beep is too short, was introduced with the last update.
Not everybody can hear it but I am an ex telegraphist and I can.
I can live with it and I am generally very pleased with the calc but if an update is planned please take this one also into account.

Hello EM41,
Make a digital sound recording of the beep. Then load the audio file into an audio editor, i.e. the "Audacity" editor. Then tell us, how large the error is.

Scheveningen is no more unfortunately.
PA3DES here and in 1985/86 I manned PCW50, the army station for contact with the Sinai missions so I'm not a sailor.
Anyway I hate dissonances and wrong timing haha.

Dr OM PA3DES
Yes, you are right. That looks like a damage in the software.
Have you tried reinstalling the firmware?

Re: Software updates?

Also some others have experienced it so its not just mine.
