I also add:   I have been using my "beta test" 
Scout (that Jack Burchfield sent to a number of us over 25 years ago)
for Mobile CW ever since.  I verify Gary and 
Dwight's findings, and also agree that the Scout Noise Blanker is the best
I have ever used, compared to my Triton 4, Omni 
C, Corsair II, Delta II and Paragon.   My Scout has endured endless
bumps, vibration, dust and dirt and still going 
strong.  Twice in the past 25 years I did pull the microprocessor and
reseat it to clean the contacts.  This handled 
any "instability" that came up.   'Long live the Scout" :-)
