Mark,
I also have a Corsair. Your description of the effect of the noise blanker
is the same as what I have personally experienced, and seems to be typical
for the Corsair. Apparently the noise blanker is only effective on
impulse-type noise, such as automotive ignition systems and similar noise.

Subject: [TenTec] Corsair I Noise Blanking

I have recently obtained a Corsair I and have got back on the air - CW.
What a great piece of equipment. I have a question about the noise
blanking control. How is it suppose to work? It appears to do
nothing. I am familiar with noise blanking circuitry, but this control
has no effect on noise peaks at all. What 'test' should I perform to
see if it is working - or not? Any help is greatly appreciated.
