I don't normally make comments on these subjects.. But I have to say, the one 
reason that I bought my K3, was because when I turn on the NR with a weak 
signal, and a S5 to S7 noise level (which is what I normally have at my QTH) 
the CW underneath the noise pops up, gets louder, and I can actually work it!  
Why would I want this feature changed?  Isn't the idea to increase (or 
"enhance" as Lyle says) the signal your trying to listen to, while at the same 
time suppressing the noise below it.  I would much rather have to turn down the 
volume control, then have to wish I was able to turn it up.  
It seems to me that most of the people with the Audio that cleans out their 
ears is due to the fact they have uncontrolled AGC levels due to very high 
Thresholds and very low slopes.  I belive if you turn your threshold on a 
little sooner, this could be avoided.  At least from what I've found. 
As for the meter not reflecting the change in audio level when you turn on the 
NR.  This is a Positive, not a negative.  How can you give a proper RST report 
if you can't even see the pre-effected signal strength?  This is exactly the 
problem that the people using the FT-2000 are having.  They have now had to 
tune their sub receiver to the same freq. as the main, Just to read that non 
DSP affected S meter.
Granted, every user is different, but in my opinion, the NR works just as it 
should.  Let let that be noted Wayne.
