If one listens only to the Elecrafters Lovers Club, one will get a skewed view of rigs.... similar to the old debate from VW car owners who loved their little bugs well beyond rationality and the facts.  I loved my old Drakes like that, but now do not love any brand.

Yes, I'd hope for further improvement of the NR on phone.  Even if
it's not too effective I still nearly always have it on, but the radio
powers up with it off and blasts me with the increased audio.  It
seems like it would be nice if it powered up with the NR in the same
state it was before.  Is this a problem for anyone else?
