Well .  I certainly listen to more than one audio source at a time!   ONE is
B O R I N G  !!!  Of course, that is why my wife won't spend much time in my
ham shack .. always going, 2 scanners, plus TAC channel monitor(s), HF/VHF
rig, 2 meter, AM radio on talk show, TV on History Channel, or like that
......... and of course, my computer ......... have 4 HF rigs, at least,
available at all times, when something is "happening" -- and, 4 more
scanning radios to turn on when things get HOT.......Now, know I am not
alone in this madness .. have friends that do this too ..  I have been doing
this for years, and have the capability .. so far .. of being able to pick
out the most interesting noise at the time to concentrate on ... kinda like
I watch TV, with the clicker in hand .. ooops, another bone of contention ..
