I also have both, and I concur.

Gentlemen,
I'm really interested in the K3 but what I'm asking of anyone on this
reflector is how GOOD IS
IT???
I presently use a TT ORION which has a fantastic 9mhz. (hardware) blanker
and has made all the
difference in the world for my being able to copy weak signals, especially
since our typical
noise level here is S-9+ without it!!! So short of my having to MOVE
somewhere else (not feasible
at this time!!!) has anyone COMPARED the i.f noise blankers of both the K3
and the TT Orion
yet???
Many thanks,
Jim Davis/nn6ee

I have an Orion II and K3 SN 806. The K3 is a much better rig overall than
the
Orion II and the noise blanker is very much better.
