Thank to all for the replies! After talking with the tech at DXE it appears the problems involved in removing my QRM with something like the NCC-1 are iffy at best. After numerous failed attempts at using different Rx antennas, my best chance to reduce the noise to better levels appears to give the NCC-1 a try.
The price of a new one for an experiment that may well not work is more than I can afford. So if anyone has a NCC-1 they are not finding useful, please contact me directly, a good used one is at least worth trying out; if it works, it would be a Godsend. It would be awesome if Elecraft encompassed this in a K3 update but I'm not holding my breath on this one.
