When I got my K3 in May, I loved the NR. Even if it didn't help with
weak signals on SSB, it certainly made listening more pleasant. With
recent firmware, however, I have to agree that NR is a bummer. It
always makes signals less pleasant to listen to on SSB regardless of
setting. Any way to restore the old performance?

I was the one asking for a comparison, and I received two replies,
each one saying that the external speaker (two different brands) they
were using was an improvement over the K3's noise reduction. I
ordered one, and sure enough, it's better. It seems that any NR
system is far from perfect however. But now my external NR gives me
some relief from the constant grind I have. I had quit using the K3's
NR not only because it wasn't helping on SSB, but also because if I
had been using it, the AF gain had to be set so high that the next
time I powered up the radio I was blasted out of my chair because it
powers up with NR off, even if it was on before. So I'll use the
outboard NR until the K3's NR becomes satisfactory for me. If it ever
does, I'll offer my NR speaker to some unfortunate OM with a lesser
radio.
