Topband: K3 Noise Blanker problem?

[K4OWR]

:::: This is a normal happening with most noise blankers and strong 
signals. I'm surprised that you have never experienced this before. I 
run into this all the time when stations using their noise blanker hear 
my signal very strong and complain that my signal is in several places. 
I advise them to temporarily turn off the blanker and the problem will 
go away. If your blanker is variable, try turning it down; or better yet 
avoid using it and rcve on your Beverage....if you have one.

> Hello all..    This AM on 160 meters there was a station CQing on 1.820.6 with a fundamental freq signal strength of S9 on my K3.  I also found (with the NB on) that I could hear him Q5 but very weak on 1.810.6 and the same S 0 reading but perfectly Q5  on 1.830.6.  I turned the noise blanker off and of course the images disappeared.  Is this a know problem when using the NB or is this just with my radio after a recent factory alignment?   I have had a K3 for years and never noticed anything like that before but then again this AM was very quiet on 160M and I had the NB on because I could hear a distant tick tick of an electric fence.
