[Elecraft] K2 Noise Blanker Problem (Feature?)

Hi Gary, I finally discovered what the NB was doing on every other 
threshhold change.  What I had perceived
as a drop in level was actually the DSP Noise Reduction being turned on 
and off.  Each time the NB is switched from
low to high threshhold, the DSP NR is either turned on or off depending 
on its present state.  I guess I should
consider this a bonus, since I only have to push one key (albeit twice) 
for NR instead of pushing Display
and Band+.   Now though, I'm wondering if this behaviour is unique to my 
K2 or if any with both Noise Blanker
and DSP installed exhibit the same?  You said you didn't hear any change 
on yours when cycling NB threshhold, but
did that K2 also have DSP installed?

I'll post this to the list also - maybe someone else can verify whether 
this is unique to mine or common to all...
