No, just a built-in stereo A/B source switch :)

OTOH, the fries are on me if you ever visit California.

Yes, I know I could RT_M; but I am working today while following the SP3
news, and wondered if anyone knows this offhand:

K3 has sub-RX.  When in more intense operations (DX, contest), when using
Split I have the two receivers each in one side of a headset (no speakers
- I don’t even own one).  For casual rag chewing, stereo not necessary for
me and sometimes having a speaker might be better than using a headset.  
So, the question:  Could there be an assigned programmable function which
with a single push would switch from stereo headset to mono speaker, thus
requiring only one SP3 for these applications?  If the answer is yes, I’ll
be in line for an SP3.

Tnx,

Ted, KN1CBR

Hi Fred,

The SP3 has a lot of room inside and is very solidly constructed, so it's a great platform for a DIY add-in like a power supply. You would only have to modify one piece of sheet metal -- the bottom cover -- since that is also the mounting point for the A/B switch in front and jacks in back.

Available interior space is approximately 3.3"H x 5.9"W x 7.3"D. Audio jacks are arranged vertically along one edge of the rear panel, leaving several inches of space for additional connectors, possibly even a small fan.

Of course you'd have to remove some of the acoustic baffle material, altering the AF response curve in an unpredictable manner. Just thinking out loud, here, but I wouldn't use it as a hiding place for your collection of rare idiophones.

73,
Wayne

You are right about that.
The only part of the Kenwood "520 Line" my Dad didn't get was the SP-520.
He thought $50 bucks for a speaker to match his $600 radio was excessive.
I have the set now and am looking for an SP-520 to finish it off. $70
minimum for a 40 year old SP-520.
The thing appreciated in value.
