[Elecraft] K3 Noise Reduction

[Stephen Prior]

Hi Greg,

Yes the 'pulse generator' is well grounded- it's connected to a 4 feet long
copper rod buried in the ground beside it.  It is noisier this time of year
as the vegetation starts to grow around/through it (that's next weekend's
job with the strimmer/sprayer!), but nevertheless the 817 NB seems to do a
better job, whatever the various combinations of DSP and IF noise blanker
settings I have tried.
