[ICOM] Good effective noise blankers

[John Geiger]

I have asked this question before in a different format, but are there any Icom rigs that have a good noise blanker in it that also doesn't kill receive?  I live in a pretty noise location so I need the noise blanker to cut down the noise, but on the rigs I have used recently they also hurt the receive. On CW I can hear loud stations 10khz away or more with the NB on-coming through as a raspy, aurora sounding signal. 

Are there any rigs that have effective noise blankers that won't lead to this increased IMD noises?  Or is that just the nature of a NB and the price you pay for using it?
