The NR value adjusts the speed of adaptation, not the amount of
NR. A lower value provides a relatively slow adaptation speed, so
that once the filter is built it will tend to persist and will change only
slowly. A higher value of NR will cause faster adaptation to
changing/new/different signal v noise conditions.
Once adaptation is complete, the amount of noise reduction will be
the same for any setting of the NR control, and won't change (all
other things being equal) if you adjust the NR value.
The "right" setting, like so many things on the Orion, depends on
conditions, what you're doing, etc. I typically stick it on about 3 and
leave it there, but it's worth experimenting with ...
