Hi all,
          I sent a message to Gary Surrency about the problem I was having 
with the Noise blanker not being "on-line" with the ATU plugged in, and 
Gary quickly replied suggesting I change the value of R6 in the Control 
board from 470 ohms to 100 ohms. I did so and the problem has disappeared.
Apparently the problem  can appear in pre 3000 series K2's with a KDSP2 and 
KAT100, and was picked up by Lyle during the field testing of the KDSP2.
An easy fix,and surely a candidate for inclusion with KDSP2's being sold to 
pre 3000 series owners?
I must have had the problem since installing the KDSP2 and been unaware of 
it, as I use the KNB2 very infrequently.
Thanks to all who replied to my plight.
Cheers.......Ron ZL1TW
