Purchased a new FT-991a and the noise blanker does not touch noise in the AM mode. Other radios reduce noise to a tolerable level, but the yaesu is nothing but 9 pounds of noise when using AM. Works fine other modes and not matter what you adjust on the NB settings it has no effect in the AM mode. Is it just a bad unit or have others experienced the same?
 

Noise blanker works here in Am as well, depending on the settings of the setup menu on NB width, NB rejection, or NB level.
The standard settings work well in SSB and AM here.
Looks like yours has a problem if the standard setings don't work or change the noise level.
Mine is from production date March 2020.
