[Elecraft] Mixing audio in split (sub RX)

[K2MK]

Hi Mike:

The FT-1000D had a small switch on the top to select stereo, mixed, or mono. 
I always prefered the mixed. I never gave much thought to it but I guess it 
was as G7VJR described, Main RX in both ears and sub RX in one ear. I do 
prefer that to the way the K3 handles it. I too would like to have a menu 
choice.

73,

Hi,

I've been absolutely thrilled with my K3 since the day it arrived. Before
the K3 I had an Orion II. The firmware updates just never materialised -
what a difference on the K3. Bravo Elecraft on a very slick operation from
start to finish. I took mine down to ZD8UW and was very pleased with the
excellent filtering on top band. Next time I'll be trying diversity RX with
great interest!

So my question is about the second RX. I use it to listen to pile ups while
calling DX split. The way the audio is routed is 100% left for the DX, and
100% right for the pile up. I sometimes use an FT-1000MP where you can have
the DX in both ears, and the pile up in one ear. This seems to work better
to me, as it gives the DX audio the edge.

I wonder if this is possible already on the K3 (so many choices in the
menus!) but couldn't see it in the docs. If it's not possible, I wonder if
it might be considered as a firmware change.

Cheers and 73
