+1 for buzzers. Our high water alarm and some others on the boat send a high pitch squeal. I have serious tinnitus that's actually louder and in the same frequency. Jan, "what is THAT noise?" Me, "yer kidding, right?"

We do use the new Garmin/Active Captain app on an Android fone. Pick up the Garmin wireless network on the fone and you have a choice of either helm or bridge screen to view. Set the anchor radius on the MFD and it shows on the fone. Not sure if the alarm rings on the fone. . . But, since the app gives total control over the MFD, we can switch on the radar, change screens, etc. from the Android.
Beats watching the news. . .
