I've been looking at the red LED mod for split operation. For blind hams or people like me who don't watch the rig constantly while operating I've been thinking about adapting the mod to switch in a padding resistor in one leg of the stereo headphone jack.
When operating non-split you would hear the sidetone in both ears. When in split mode the sidetone would appear to come from either the left or the right headphone to audibly remind you that you are in split. If you are working a DX pileup split and you hear your sidetone in both headphones....yell to yourself "UP! UP! UP!". Any opinions / dangers / drawbacks to this approach?
