[Elecraft] K3 DNR

[W6NEK]

Gary,
As I understand it, just a TAP of the NR button will toggle the NR function On and Off.
TAP & HOLD will place the NR into adjustment mode so the NR profile can be changed.
Fred asked: "is there a way to continuously adjust the DNR from the very lowest to the most aggressive with a dial while listing"?
As far as I know NR TAP & HOLD (NR ADJ) is the only way to accomplish what he wants.

Is there an easier way that I missed?

  Fred,

  Just a TAP of the NR is all that is needed. No need to HOLD

    Hi Fred,
    I agree that the 15 step DNR control on the FT5000 is a very useful and
    effective function.  To gain access to the K3 NR settings you need to press
    and hold the NR button (NR ADJ).  The settings will appear in the VFO B
    portion of the display.  There are a total of 32 noise reduction steps with
    the first 16 tailored to CW mode (F1-1 thru F4-4) and the remaining 16
    tailored for SSB mode (F5-1 thru F8-4).  While not as convenient as the
    variable NR setting on the FT5000, it's just as effective.  You can read all
    about it on page 25 of the Operating Manual.
