[Elecraft] Will the K2 noise blanker help with this QRM?

[Brendan Minish]

no the noise blanker is not going to help with that sort of noise, it's
designed for impulse type noise (ignition noise, electric fences etc )
The DSP audio filter has an auto notch feature that can remove a carrier
and this may help somewhat
