Well, Steve, I haven't noticed distortion of signals, although I must
admit that I haven't had time to play with the noise blanker too much, since
I'm at work when ten meters is open.
Hopefully, I can figure out my way around the noise issue, since I'd hate to
miss out on the 10-meter contest.
Will work at it as I get time here.
