I do not have an Orion, using the FT-1000D and the
blanker takes out the 40 meter Jammer on the "wide"
setting very well, unless its opened by a strong signal
then you get the "buzz" sound on the signals.
The 160 jammer is not even close comparison in
sound or type,  it has pulses but also as bad is the
"musical" tones, or growling that are spread across the band. For 
some reason I could hear it very well Sat. nite
here during the contest, first time have heard it that
early,  it has been S8 here in Hawaii lsitening on the
vertical,  it covers up the Eu opening many times.
I can hear it from about 1700KHZ to over 1900KHZ.
