[Elecraft] K3 NB & NR

[Merv Schweigert]

I have had some results like Richard,   on 40 meters the Chinese dragon
has been active again and in the past the K3 is useless against this type
of radar.  Much to my surprise it blanked the Dragon this time,  I have
some distant power line noise that I was also never able to blank and
now the K3 blanks that decently as well. 
I do not think there was any mention of changes in the NB and perhaps
there ware none directly,  but there sure have been some side effects in
any case,  works much better than before at least on this K3.
