[TenTec] Orion 565 DSP NB Adjustment

[marsh at ka5m.net]

John,

>From The Orion 565 Manual:

"To adjust the DSP noise blanker, press NB. A value of 1 through 9 will
appear on the screen just above the NB button.
Use the MULTI knob to adjust the noise blanker value from 1 to 9. A higher
value indicates more aggressive noise
blanker action - please note that high noise blanker settings on loud SSB
signals can lead to intermodulation distortion
of received signals."

Marsh, KA5M

Thanks Bernie,  Do they affect receiver performance much when engaged, other
than reducing the noise?
