Ignition noise from large trucks??? All of the ones I've seen are diesel - no spark ignition at all!
Such trucks often make a lot of hash from various electric motors, etc. - just the sort of thing the NB can't touch. Did you remove jumper W5 from the K2's RF board when you installed the NB?

For sure it did nothing on ignition/truck noise (3 cement trucks outside our doors). And it did nothing to reduce or change what I call repetitive popcorn white noise signals on bands. Hooked up to a wet noodle wire antenna - I could never verify any operation of NB at all. Someone suggested it only works in high signal level noise situations. Perhaps ....... K3NB?
