Hmmmm.  That's interesting.  I find the K3's Noise Blanker (NB) to be  
very effective against the various electric fences in my  
neighborhood.  The DSP=t1-6 or t1-7 setting takes the pulses  
completely out without imparting any objectionable artifacts.  I don't  
know much about electric fences, so maybe there are different types  
I'm not aware of.  The ones around here just send a pulse about once  
every second.
