There's the good old fashioned way of doing it. Use a separate receiver.
Maybe a KX-1?
My shack is evolving (no Darwin jokes, please :-) at the moment. I'm planning
on running the output of my rigs (currently 3) into a mixing board that will
feed a single audio filter which will feed my headphones.
This should be easy to build with a single audio integrated circuit.
You will want a pot on both inputs so you can balace the audio. Why the
audio filter? They are not very good.
This way, I can listen to either rig (or both at the same time) and I don't have
to be switching things back & forth. The mixer will also serve as the mic
preamp which feeds audio through the outboard EQ and outboard compressor prior to
going into the SSB rig.
This might be tricky. I find little written about compression and it
is perhaps simple I don't know. My ATS-3 rig has a AGC integrated chip
in the receiver audio. You might use this as a compressor for
transmitting. But again just an audio amp with lots of output adjustment
should work fine.
I'll be able to monitor the mic signal before it goes into the rig as well as
hearing it through the rig's MON circuit.
Yes you can build that in with ease.
Fun!

Is there a 3rd party external "box" that might work? Not that I work SSB very often, but I consider audio monitor to be ESSENTIAL!
