of monstorous bursts of rf from bus feelers skipping off the overhead=20
wires. Which in turn generates a lot of QRN.

I borrowed an audio DSP system & the noise-limiter function did an=20
excellent job removing the noise. But, because that puts it outside of the=

AGC system, the IC-765 tends to get overwhelmed.

not aware of any.

Thanks
