Could someone point me to the frequencies of TONE 0-9 and the length of the tones in ms?
I do not have a complete answer for you but here is a partial one: (48G,50g) HP 41C style BEEP

The source is the Wickes book on synthetic programming which I do not have, so if you can get your hands on that book you can probably have a complete answer.
Does Page 24 from the "HP-41 Synthetic Quick Reference Guide" help out?

Google for "hp41-synthetic-qrg.pdf".

Try this:

Code:
TONE 7
TONE 5
TONE 8
TONE 7

… it sounds good! Wink

And now TONE, TONEXY and BEEP is properly implemented in XRPN.
