Subject: Mixed On/Kun Kanji list
Usually, Japanese Kanji compound words are all On-readings or all Kun-readings.
But there are exceptions, so I'm starting a list here. As I notice these, I will add them to this list.
I put the kun-yomi in hiragana and the on-yomi in katakana.

長年 ながネン  for a long time
手数 てスウ   troublesome   (can also be read as てかず)
早番 はやバン  early arrival
現場 ゲンば   actual spot; scene; scene of the crime; (can also be read as ゲンジョウ)
工場 コウば   factory (but usually read as こうじょう)
大勢 おおゼイ  a lot of people
朝練 あさレン  morning practice
錠前 ジョウまえ lock
毒虫 ドクむし  poisonous insect
新型 シンがた  new type
新芽 シンめ   sprout, bud, shoot
建具 たてグ   fittings such as sliding doors, fusuma, shoji, etc.; furniture
札束 サツたば  roll of banknotes
道順 みちジュン itinerary, route
船便 ふなビン  surface mail
無口 ムくち   reticence, taciturnity, silent
