Hi Windy, I wonder if adjusting the AGC SLP would have an impact on NR processing? I have AGC SLP at 12 and when I need NT it is set for F1-2. Maybe a higher AGC SLP would cause less distortion with stronger signals?

I think NR works better now, but I'm not really sure. In the process however, I found that I was being distracted by the more "powerful" ranges of 3-x and 4-x. For SSB, the best setting seems to be "1-3". Before, I didn't think it was so effective. The 1 range maintains good volume equalizing between on/off. Higher ranges cause too much distortion. Maybe they are OK on CW, but any advantage seems to be not worth the time to continue experimenting. For now, I'm going to use "1-3" and forget about the higher ranges of NR. A good improvement would be if the NR processing could reduce automatically with signal strength, to avoid unnecessary distortion on strong signals. I trust we'll see some further improvement eventually but meanwhile, I can enjoy using it on low signal/noise ratio conditions and switching it off on stronger signals.
