[Elecraft] MCU 4.51

[W0MU Mike Fatchett]

I just got it tonight.  I have not had much chance to compare but the NB 
in 4.50 is much better!  A curious unexpected side effect!

So,  the noise is being eliminatd with low setting of the NB.  I suppose the real test will be when I hear  s9 plus line noise which I frequently get here.
