Hi Thom. Not to prolong the agony (I think that Wayne has already put this on the "list" - hope it moves up to a high priority), but I have the same problem as you do and for general "power-line" noise, my KNB2 is useless - however, there is a certain "pop, popping, frying" noise that is S9+30 on 80 meters that it eliminates completely!! Too bad I don't operate 80!
I'd be glad to beta test something if anyone's got some mods (yes, I already tried changing the "NB2" capacitor a number of times all to no avail). Now before anyone gets too terribly defensive, I've already rated my K2 as way above my Pro II and the Mark V - but simply put, the noise blanker could use some technical attention. 73 es Happy New Year --Don N4HH K2/100/#2028/KPA100, etc. etc. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thom R.
