[Orion] Orion II Noise Blankers

[BobK8IA@aol.com]

Have had my Orion II a week now. Really a terrific radio. A real  contesters 
and DXers tool, and thats about all I do.
 
One item that puzzles me is whether or not the two Noise Blankers  really 
work, or maybe I have a problem here. 
 
First of all, I do have some line noise in the area. My old radio's  (IC-765) 
noise blanker attacked that noise somewhat. At least you could tell it  was 
doing "something". 
 
Both the hardware and software noise blankers in the Orion II dont  seem to 
be doing much, if anything. The digital NR certainly operates as I can  hear 
that one kick in.
 
I did a master reset and no difference.
 
Anyone else notice my problem?
