I just tested an experimental feature (I hope I won't be shot for 
revealing this) which allows you (among other things) to put the main 
receiver audio into both ears and the sub receiver into one.

There is no question that this made it possible to copy a weak DX 
station much better while still listening to the pileup.

Please note that Elecraft has/have not indicated that they will 
implement it or if so, when.
