Constant Hydrophone Audio

Slightly random question, but I'm currently trying to get a bit more hotseat multiplayer playability out of SH3.

I know that multiple screens are not supported, but is there a way via a mod or otherwise that the hydrophone audio channel can be made to constantly be active even when not at the station?

Ideally, through a secondary audio channel so that headphones can be used for them whilst the rest of the game sound goes through the normal channels.

I know it's a big ask, and I've not modded any SH sims yet so I'm not sure what is feasible. I'll have to start reading up...

Unless you recode the game or the overlay files, I don't think there is a way to Mod this.
