I was wondering what could be causing my chimes to have a deteriorating sound especially when doing the long point countdown. When its doing a long point countdown after the first few chime hits it sounds loud and sharp and then starts to get more softer and flat. I have the Flippp board and it has a chime setting #62 that says it allows for a longer driving pulse allowing for a louder and clear ring, with the setting on or off is still does the same thing.
