Yes, it's a K3 early serial #.....I just got it yesterday. (sorry about that
- I forgot it was an Elecraft wide list and not just a K3 list - my bad)

I updated the firmware from 4.83 to the newest a couple hours ago, hoping it
would help.

 

Good on eliminating the mention on newer firmware.  That's a relief.

 

The noise I am trying to clear up is a nearby electric fence.

 

So far as I can tell, the IF NB does nothing (or very nearly next to
nothing).

 

Regardless of the dozen or whatever choices and any other setting on the
radio be it mode, width, gain, whatever, the NB letters themselves will
flash once I transmit a couple times.

I have even put the rig down to 5W thinking MAYBE it was RFI, but that would
not explain the NB doing nothing (or very nearly nothing) in RX mode before
I even transmit once.

A rig sitting right next to it from an Asian country eliminates the pulses
easily and I have been told the K3 is way better.  I have to believe that.

 

One thing did occur to me as I was typing this.  The radio was shipped to me
(packed very well ) by Canada Post.

 

Could this particular board KNB3 be loose on a connector?

 

Has nobody ever seen this particular issue?  I can't imagine in all these
years I would be the first to see this issue, hi !

 

Other than the NB, the radio works very well, so the board is in there - but
it's just not doing its job, hi 

 

73 es thanks a lot guys.  So far, I am liking the radio...unfortunately for
me, an electric fence is my nemesis.
