[Elecraft] Noise Blanker K2

[Eddy Avila]

Hi Bill, my K2 is 10 feet from a very large 220v sump pump (pumps our sewer 
uphill, but may be that's too much information....HI!)  and the K2 noise 
blanker is the only blanker of all rigs I own that takes the pump noise out 
when the motor is pumping.....an amazing NB!!
