Very interesting, Ken. Differing hearing loss between ears is quite 
common, which suggests that it could be useful for the new K4 to 
incorporate the ability to EQ left and right headphone channels 
separately! I've often recommended to ham friends with hearing loss to 
use the K3/K3S/KX2/KX3 to compensate by massive cut of low audio 
frequencies and massive boost the the top bands, and guys have told me 
that it helps a lot.

Wayne, are you listening?
