[Elecraft] K3-intercom between headsets

HI,

One of the features that helped sell me on the K3 was the ability to 
have two sets of headphones connected without external splitters, and 
have the speaker 'on' as well.  My club does three Special Events each 
year plus Field Day and it is helpful to use headphones for the operator 
and logger.  But, many complain that with most radios, when you plug in 
the headphones, the speaker is disabled and the onlookers can't hear 
what is going on.  The K3 puts and end to that, everyone can now hear.

But, with good headphones, now the operator and logger can't hear each 
other.  How nice it would be in there was some way that the mic's could 
be active during 'non' key periods so that the logger and operator could 
talk to each other to verify calls, exchange etc. and still hear what's 
on the radio.

Is there any chance this might be added to the K3 feature list?
