OK...I understand now. I was thinking of the CW spatial effect with
Binaural AFX having high pitch on one side and low pitch the other side.
Using diversity for DX signals, I find they often shift between one ear and
the other as the signal changes. The net result it that you can copy a
signal continuously that might be fading in and out if you were using only
one antenna.
I love diversity and use it 99.9% of the time I operate! Only the K3 and
Flex 5000 have this capability currently.
