Nice work.

Thanks for providing details on your strategy, including the impedance
matching trick for getting the signals into the lab over the phone
wire, and the safety tips for avoiding problems with lightning.

We'll eventually need a way to catalog and contribute signal
processing modules developed by everybody.  Please let us know what
you need and/or come up with for your application.
