K3 noise blanker

WD6DBM
I can confirm Lance's statement that the K3 noise blanker is excellent!  I used it with quite aggressive settings to wipe out some impulse noise on 6m during the Geminids shower.  That allowed me to run wsjt and work a number of stations.

Re: K3 noise blanker

I have power lines at approximately 150 meters from my QTH. The only thing I
don't like about the NB is that every time you switch the radio off and on,
you have to engage the NB again. I wish it would stay on permanently since
it's very effective and doesn't seem to have any down sides.

P.s. As a professional fire fighter I absolutely love you callsing: PY1RO

Maarten,

In the menu: NB Save.

Switch that to on. That will solve the problem.
