Last night I was flying out of Dyess AFB and I noticed there were morse codes beeps coming from inside the cockpit...it didnt matter what aircraft I was flying. (B-1, F8F & Sopwith Camel)

Has anyone else had this happen???  :-/

I've only had morse code when the Automatic Direction Finder was turned on (and sometimes the Navigation part of the radio too, or the two together)

The NAV radio was most likely tuned to a localizer, such as a VOR :)

Ok, It must be set on the B-1...because I would land and just change aircraft, but never fully close out the one flight.

Switch to an aircraft that has the audio panel, and simply disable the audio for the nav radios... ;)
