Don, Thanks for the references. Many of us were not on this reflector or even owned a K3 in 2009 so would not know. I am printing this off for future reference when I am ready to investigate NR/NB more thoroughly.

To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed There was "straight talk" about NR from Lyle Johnson (who designed and implemented the algorithms) in his reflector posts of 8/25/09 and 8/27/09 as well as the information in the Firmware Release Notes for version 3.30 (avaliable using the K3 Utility Help pulldown). Page 25 of the K3 manual has a comprehensive description of the tools available - Reducing Interference and Noise section. The manual content is Wayne's work, so those who know most about those implementations have already spoken. I am not certain how much more authoritative information you are seeking. As far as explicit "Here is how you use it" - each individual case or instance of noise is different and will require different treatment. Each user will have to cycle through the settings available to see which works best - the result is a compromise, there is little that can move a signal out of the noise and provide a completely distortion-free and clear copy signal - copy will be improved, but just how much is improved and how much distortion is tolerable is a question each operator must answer. 73, Don W3FPR 73, Ed - KL7UW, WD2XSH/45 ====================================== BP40IQ 500 KHz - 10-GHz www.kl7uw.com EME: 144-QRT*, 432-100w, 1296-QRT*, 3400-fall 2010 DUBUS Magazine USA Rep [email protected] ====================================== *temp ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
