[Elecraft] How to test noise blanker

Guys,

Can anyone recommend a way to test my new K2 noise blanker?  My antenna
(260' long dipole) is nearly 200' behind the house, so I'm thinking of
loosening feedline connector & turning on a hair dryer nearby.  Maybe
even use a short random wire antenna for the rx test.  Any better
suggestions?

I'm lucky to live in a rural area with no noise needing blanking...but I
couldn't resist maxing out the K2.  I'm pretty sure the K2's "not inst"
message flashes a subliminal "buy me" message.

Thanks,
Mike  ab3ap
