I have situations here that require the op to wear headphones in addition
to using the speaker.

The K3 can do this, but not the 565, or at least I don' t think so without
having to add on an external mixer and amp.
I use series resistors to the two hot terminals of a stereo phone jack for the headphones and a wirewound rear speaker fader rheostat ( Calrad or Philmore I think ) for the speaker. All of this in a small aluminum box, fed from the external speaker output of the radio. No need for an amplifier.
