[Elecraft] K3 Noise Reduction Performance

NB works well... It's the NR that could use improvement. 

Tnx,

I have to disagree.  I have serious QRM at my location and when I use settings 2-5 with Med 2 IF on my NR, it cleans up ALL of the electrical noise in my area.  I ALWAYS drop at least 3 S-Units of noise each time I turn mine on.  However, if there can be even more improvement than I'm all for it.

I cannot find a noise reduction setting that is suitable to me. I realize this is a subjective, and you would have to compare the K3s noise reduction with that of another radio. I have owned the Ten-Tec Omni VII which in my opinion has the best NR on SSB without a doubt. I believe it is all in the NR programming and how the algorithms are set up. There has been considerable improvement from the time the K3 was introduced, but I believe there is still room for further improvement. I would like to see noise reduction with a minimum loss of signal fidelity. Roy Morris W4WFB
