I would like to thank Geoff  GM4ESD, Wayne N6KR and Brett N2DTS for 
answering my noise blanker questions. I have decided to order a K3 and 
hope the noise blanker is good enough to fix my problem. I have other 
noises too that are not as bad as the TV so if I am lucky some of them 
may also be helped. I will be keeping my K2 for portable camping which I 
enjoy and the IC-746PRO for 2 and 6 meters. The power supply for the PRO 
should work well for the K3 if I install some power pole connectors. I 
am looking forward to working FD 1B QRP Battery as I have done for the 
last 6 years. That is my answer to the problem of CW operators not being 
popular with the local club. I usually go to a camp ground but this year 
I am thinking of setting up on my driveway by the street. Nothing would 
be used from my normal station and I think it would be fun to see how 
well it would work. Next year I still plan to use the K2 for camping and 
FD even if I have the K3.
