[Elecraft] [K3] Need for advice was; noise reduction

[Wayne Burdick]

Note that we already have an extensive FAQ page for the K3:

    http://www.elecraft.com/K3/K3FAQ.htm

There are many operating tips on this page, categorized by mode, etc.  
NR is one of the areas covered.

Would this be a good place to add more extensive operating advice?  
This page can be updated much more easily than the owner's manual.

73,
