You can’t really compare an NIR-12 to a more current implementation.  The 
KiwiSDR algorithm runs on a BeagleBone processor with virtually no discernible 
artifacts.  The artifacts were the achilles heel of the NIR-12.  I had one for 
a while.  Never liked it.

Presuming Elecraft delivers what they have said they’re working on, it will be 
a great addition to the radio.

Spectral subtraction was used in the JPS noise reduction units long ago. I 
still have my NIR-12.

I’m now really hyped about the fact that this will be available at some point 
on the K4.  It works exceptionally well.  So well, that I leave it turned on 
most of the time.  Often, stations you can barely copy down in the junk 
literally pop up out of the noise.  Don’t know if this will be available at

I’ve only tried it on AM and SSB at this point, so not sure about CW.

Grant,

    You peaked my interest. I attempted to find examples of spectral 
subtraction and only found talks about it (no audio examples). Would you 
happen to know where I might find some examples? Maybe comparing results 
between several noise reduction methods?


    Thanks!

[Elecraft] K4 -- Spectral subtraction noise reduction

I’ve recently been exploring quite a few of the many SDR receivers on KiwiSDR.  
One of the (many) features of this system is an option to select spectral 
subtraction NR.

I’m now really hyped about the fact that this will be available at some point 
on the K4.  It works exceptionally well.  So well, that I leave it turned on 
most of the time.  Often, stations you can barely copy down in the junk
