I have a constant S5 to S7 noise floor here at my QTH.. It's both QRN and QRM.
This is especially true when the conditions change so that the DX is present. I

I've never had an NR that actually reduced random band
I'm not sure about others, but I have found that the new NR on V3.25 is just
not aggressive enough for me. All of the noise gateing effect has been removed.

that turning from 1-1 to 4-4 makes very little difference.
As a CW operator, I can state very matter of fact, the old NR was exactly what

No Conspirac therosts would see it more as a scheme to let ops know that the
good old days of Hams actually working on their own radios are paractially
dead, and even Elecraft is subjected to appliance operators too. Sad day,
isn't it.

I would be happy to trouble shoot and repair the K3 rigs if I thought that
people would actually send them to an outside source for repair.
However, I think that people would much rather wait the 7 weeks than have their
rigs repaired by someone other than Elecraft. That's one thing Elecraft
Perhaps you have your Width open too wide for CW, remember, you don't need to
have it open 2KHz wide to use CW. Perhaps you have your notch filter on Auto
with SSB and off with CW? Perhaps you have no NR on or NB on while in CW but do
with SSB? Or perhaps you have a DIFFERENT NR setting on for

I've asked for this feature to be implemented as well. The feature is already
available in the Config menu now, but it only works with Sub receiver ON. It
does not however work when Diversity mode is on.. seems a little odd, as that's
the most important time to have the sub in your both ears
Lyle,
As you know, this is NOT working in the Diversity mode as this person wants to
use it. It is ONLY available with SUB mode at the time. Perhaps you can
Stress to Wayne that he should finally make it available for use when in
