[Elecraft] K3 DNR

*Frank,

Tap to turn on NR and turn off NR

Whether NR is on or off, a HOLD (1 sec) the NR will bring up adjustment,
variable via VFO B

There is no current facility to change the setting by SAVING it to a PF key
which was the original inquiry.

 I have not had a Yaesu in my shack since I discarded the FTdx9000D and I
thought that enough time had passed that Yaesu would have fixed that issue,
but, apparently not?

I have never found a need to do this as I have had the K3 long enough to
get all my settings right. If a transceiver needs to have this adjusted
continuously during qso's then I sure don't one of those.  :-)

YMMV
