Hi Wayne
The firmware loaded ok here using the new KX3 utility. The noise I reported
yesterday (plasma??) was still on 80 & 40 and I was able to confirm that the
noise blanker did at least remove much of the pulse content of the noise with a
setting of between 10 and 12. Unfortunately there was no activity on those bands
at the time so I was unable to see what effect the NB had on the received speach
quality. As luck would have it last night and this morning 80 & 40 were both
quiet QRM wise although what pulse noise was apparent in amongst the atmospheric
noise was eliminated by the NB at a setting of around 7-8.
I checked for the reported error message when recalling a stored frequency but
that was unable to replicate it either with the RCL or STORE functions.
Looking good!

We've enhanced the KX3 noise blanker, with 15 level settings and improved
strong-signal performance. If you experience a lot of QRN at your location and
would like to try the field-test firmware release, please email me directly.
