Is it necessarily the case though that a VFR pilot would have been
told about IFR radio functions? I know I wasn't told anything about
IFR radio procedures other than how to use the VOR nav functions.

I'm pretty sure I would have been just as mystified by the beeping as
the original poster.

I would think that a pilot would be taught basic things, on everything in
the plane, at least to the level of turning it off.
