Good evening everyone. I just wanted to post a link to a video that I made using the DXE NCC-2. I have had some high tension power line work done about 1/8 mile from my qth over this summer, and since then I have been subject to 10-20 over 9 noise floors on 160m. What used to be a S-2 S-4 band for me was now not so fun anymore. While I wait for the power line crew to do repair work I decided to give the DXE NCC-2 a try. I have tried other manufactures noise cancelers in the past and came to the conclusion that all they do is attenuate both the noise and the signal. The DXE version was a lot more money then the others, but everything I have ever bought from them has worked beyond my expectations. Last year I installed their DXE 4 square RX system and it worked great, but unfortunately this noise I am hearing is coming from the NE direction (Europe) and it's loud even on the 4 square. So I decided to buy the NCC-2 and I'm glad I did. I did the comparison on FT-8 because it is very easy to see that with the unit on, I hear stations 10-20 db stronger on FT-8 that without I would never hear at all. I have consistently seen signals that are -25 db increase to a average +2 db signal. So I will copy the link below so you all can view it, I have yet to try and phase the 160m loop with the DXE 4 square. Maybe this weekend I will play around with that. If your looking to improve your signal to noise this unit is defiantly something to look into...
