I am the happy owner of K3 #340. I also own a Kenwood TS 830S, which is one fine radio, even in 2008 (see Sherwood's tables for performance figs.). However, I have never had much success with the 830's noise blanker, and usually don't bother to turn it on; whereas with the K3's noise fighters are able to eliminate practically all the line noise at my qth. I used to use an MFJ 1026 device to quite effectively eliminate noise when using the 830, but find I don't need it with the K3. What gives??
