[Elecraft] KNB2 Performance

[Tom Arntzen]

With technology available today I wonder if it would be possible to design a 
2-stage tracking NB!
Just in the same manner as auto beat canceling.
I'm a better builder than designer , but can't help myself throwing out some 
thoughts on this.
Stage 1 when turned on search and lock on the noice pattern and stay locked.
Stage 2 workes same way as stage 1 , but can be turned on after stage 1 to 
lock on a second pattern.
Each reactivation starts a new search for patterns.
Do some of you designers think this is possible?
I would gladly throw an extra $30,40,50 for a high performance NB.
