Hello all;
I push on a CW "filter" and it does the same thing!
I also press attenuate with same results!
Unh? Noise blanker and/or filter does same thing?
Why?
Because filters and NB may "appear" to remove atmospheric noise, but
it's still there, because it's attenuated. (There's a little more to
that but not here)
Noise blankers work more effectively on man-made noise such as
automobiles, lights, motors, hair dryers (pulse type noise) etc.
Not atmospheric noises.
Oh,
after you did that, you probably had to turn up the volume a bit
like I did.
It make for easier listening though.
Regardless, I love me K1.

evening here on 30Metres, and the QRN seemed incessant, I [probably]
accidentally pushed the NB button on a K2. And suddenly the noise all but
disappeared. Since then I have come to use it regularly, as there seems to
be a whole lot of QRN here in the tiny subdivision. But the NB will
normally knock it down to listenable levels.
