Hello Dan, I share the same observation for NR of my IC7600. If K3 had the same 'manual notch within AGC loop' as that in IC7600, I would rate my K3 even higher in the rank. cheers,

In a moment of weakness many months ago, I purchased an IC-7600. While it's a nice radio, it is NOT a K3 nor would I ever use it in a contest or try fighting a pile-up with it (unless it was the only radio available). That said, with all the 7600's lackluster features, the Noise Reduction (NR) on the ICOM far, even greatly exceeds the NR in the K3. The noise reduction itself, the quality of (remaining) signal (QoS), and its ease of use is a marvel and my benchmark NR behavior. While in the K3 you can usually find a decent NR setting, by no means is it easily configurable with it's convoluted algorithm scheme nor is the resultant QoS as clean. My opinion only; YMMV. 73, Dan -- N3ND Date: Sun, 28 Nov 2010 16:27:56 -0500 From: "Roy Morris" <[email protected]> Subject: [Elecraft] K3 Noise Reduction Performance To: <[email protected]> I have two K3s and the NR is the same on both. If I had to identify a feature on the K3 that needs improvement, I would have to say it is the NR. I cannot find a noise reduction setting that is suitable to me. I realize this is a subjective, and you would have to compare the K3s noise reduction with that of another radio. I have owned the Ten-Tec Omni VII which in my opinion has the best NR on SSB without a doubt. I believe it is all in the NR programming and how the algorithms are set up. There has been considerable improvement from the time the K3 was introduced, but I believe there is still room for further improvement. I would like to see noise reduction with a minimum loss of signal fidelity.
