Jim, well I don't know whether the Orion does all this or not. Never have
owned one of those beauties! I have learned that the K3 and K3S have this
capability. I have been trying to save up some shekels for onel. I have a
K2, but it doesn't have any capability for a second receiver.
Yep, I believe that the system takes output from a single antenna and does
it's magic. Somehow there is a process which takes the single source, then
divides it into left and right. Then it sends these two signals into the
headphones, one signal out of phase 90 degrees from the other. The effect
is dramatic as I said earlier.
I actually owned a receiver which did this, only to lose it in a move.
Rats. Sure would like to have this one back. No idea as to where it went,
but suddenly when we got into our new house, there was no binaural
receiver. I probably should have gone out for a replacement in those days,
which was about 15 years ago, because doubtless several guys were building
them up from articles in QST and elsewhere.
