Greetings,
I have been enjoying my Hermes and lately have been using it with
OpenHPSDR mRx v 3.1.5 and Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. To run JT65 and JT9
I am now using WSJT-X v. 1.1.
Looking over some measurements posted recently, it seemed there was a
benefit to the Noise Reduction (NR) feature of mRx. My experience
with NR ON and using WSJT-X was unexpected.
With NR OFF, the bandpass shown in the WSJT-X spectrum display looks
nice and flat and noise seems to be distributed evenly across the
pass band. However, with NR ON the spectrum display in WSJT-X shows
areas of very strong noise and the displayed passband has what I
would describe is extreme ripple. I live in a noisy location, but
the display with NR ON has never been as bad as when I first tried NR
today. The spectrum display in mRx looks normal.
Here is a screen shot showing both mRX and OpenHPSDR mRx. You may
need to scroll down to see the spectrum display of WSJT-X

I wonder if others are observing the same effect. Perhaps some
program I use is effecting these programs or, maybe, the NR feature
is not meant for JT9 - JT65.
Best regards,
John WoGN
