Beware the noise blanker can introduce a lot of false products with strong
signals. For example on 144 MHz I have the PX3 NB on and it does cut out
display of powerline noise, but as soon as a strong signal appears on the band
the noise level bounces up and down way beyond the actual signal. So
Another thing to try is the noise blanker in the PX3. At the moment I have an
arcing power pole down the road from my place spewing out lots of garbage on
the air, which can be seen on the PX3. If I enable the PX3's noise blanker, it
really cleans up the display and lets me see the underlying si

Thanks for your response, really appreciate it.
1. Yes, the RX IQ is enabled - I think if it wasn’t enabled I wouldn’t see

It is working normally, it’s just that the trace left on the waterfall is
extremely faint for a signal
that is 20 - 30 db above the noise floor.
That doesn't sound normal. Three things to check:- in the KX3, do you have the
RX I/Q set to Enabled- on page 16 of the PX3 manual, check the REF and SCALE
settings- have you done the side and nulling procedure on page 26? Maybe the
gain settings there are not sane.

I bought a new KX3 and PX3 factory built, 3 weeks ago. It is a great pair, but
there are several
annoying things. The one thing that I have issue with is the very poor
“sensitivity” of the PX3.
I have 59 plus 10 signals on my KX3, however, on the PX3 waterfall the trace is
very faint and
