MFJ makes something called the MFJ 1026 noise remover, that allegedly can
remove or reduce QRM from a specific source by phase shifting and mixing
the signals from your main antenna and an extra receive antenna. Details

I wonder if the K3 with the subreceiver could be made to do something
similar, the architecture would probably not allow it because the DSP from
the subreceiver and the main receiver aren't connected, but it would sure
be a great thing to have.
At my QTH we suffer from daily QRM on 40m, which starts around 2000z and is
usually gone by 2315z, putting S7 noise all over the 40m band, I haven't
been able to track it down yet but myself and several other hams are
looking at it (it's affecting an area of many square miles, including the
entire area surrounding Cambridge).
If there was a way to do something similar directly in the K3, perhaps with
a new add-on module, that would be fantastic. I realize the chances are
slim, but here's throwing the idea into the air!
