I like it! I left my settings in RX NR alone, and just used the multifunction control. I found the whole range was usable in CW and SSB. At the higher levels, a bit more AF gain is needed.
Next, I'll put the noise source outside near the doublet and see if I can tune around and pull sigs out of the noisier background. My place is normally very quiet on HF, so have to artificially raise the noise floor to give the feature a thorough workout.
