>From time to time I have a very strong powerline or other impulse noise or noises. K3 sometimes takes care of it sometimes not. I general, I have a feeling that NB is IC-7000 is a bit better although K3 does well with some types of noise that IC7000 cannot bite with the DSP NB.
NB takes care of short impulse noises from a single location very well. When the noise is from multiple locations or of a very complex type, NB does not do much. In such a case, a device like MFJ-1026 does wonders; you will need a second antenna.
