Another complicating factor is whether you are listening in CW or CW 
reverse.

I would think that the DPDT switch would be the best solution.

A 750 Hz tone would appear in your right ear, and a 350 Hz tone in your left. As you move the VFO from where you are, tuning "up" the band, that 750 Hz tone would "slide across your head" to the left, and when you zero beat it, it's right in the middle. If you keep tuning in that same direction, that same signal would start to favor the left ear, and below a pre-set threshold, would appear only in your left ear.
