I would recommend getting with the instructor in the club who checked
you out in and endorsed you to fly the 172. That club instructor should

the issue and 2) provide some instruction on the subject for you.
Getting someone to troubleshoot "beeping" over usenet is probably not
nearly as effective.

Of course, this recommendation is based on the assumption that you are
in a flying club that requires checkouts by club instructors (which has
been the case for me)

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.
