[Elecraft] KNB2 Performance

[Evert Bakker (PA2KW)]

Joe,

I do agree with you for the full 100%!

I do have here a Ten-Tec Paragon. The same waste of money (the NB of
course).
I'm also the luck owner of a Drake TR7/R7. The noise blanker is FABULOUS.
It would be of great help to may of us to redesign it or at least make an
other version with different specs available.

I too have found the KNB2 lacking in most real world noise situations. I 
even built a second one. Yes, when you scratch Q22 it works. However, that 
is irrelevant. Most impulse noise on the air in my area slips right 
through. Compared to the FT1000 and FT736R it is a poor third. Time to 
redesign it. Make it plug compatible and you'll sell many. My order for 
KNB2-2 stands.  Joe K4AA
