[Elecraft] K3: honest question re Audio Peak Filter

As far as I can see, Lyle's dsp firmware is creating the AF response
dynamically from the IF - it's just a matter of Lyle shoehorning APF code. 

I'd guess that one reason LPF was implemented in hardware rather than
firmware is to filter out noise that was generated either at the DAC or
post-DAC.
