Re: [Elecraft] NB - DSP/IF

Jim,

The effectiveness of the NB and NR will depend on the type of noise you 
encounter - that is why the K3 implements both.
The NB works best on impulse type noise.  It will have little effect on 
noise that makes more of a 'frying bacon' sound.  The way it works is to 
detect the noise early in the receiver and then blank out a later 
receiver stage so the noise pulse is not heard.
The NR works well on that 'frying' sound.  In the K3, NR is implemented 
as a signal enhancement function, rather than reducing the noise, it 
looks for patterns that would be found in a real signal and passes those 
along while rejecting the rest.  If I recall the proper term is 'signal 
correlation'.

differrence in audio (which I would at higher levels of DSP). 


Thoughts?

I have to say, I haven't been able to tell a great deal of difference,  
but I think that is because I don't have that kind of noise at my QTH.

I do find NR works really well though :-)
