Dear Fellow Flexers, Please allow me to share a little trick that I've stumbled upon, using PowerSDR v2.0.16 with my Flex 5K, that seems to dramatically improve band noise and woodpecker noise filtering while improving the effectiveness of Noise Blanker 1 and Noise Blanker 2.
1. Click on 2.9 filter and tune to the noise source in LSB or USB. 2. Click on Noise Blanker 1, then pull down the setup menu and click on the tab that allows you to adjust the settings. 3. Experiment with the settings until you achieve the lowest noise possible with minimum audio distortion on NB1. 4. LEAVING NB1 SELECTED, click on NB2, then use the setup tab to adjust NB2 for minimum noise, as you did with NB1. 5. Close the setup menu and de-select the noise blankers until you need them. The next time an annoying pulse noise blankets your frequency, select both NB1 and NB2 to gang the noise blankers and cut the noise level as far as possible.
