As far as I remember from the K3 block diagram, each receiver has its own
DSP that feeds one AF channel, and each DSP has no knowledge of what goes on
in the other DSP. If this is a correct understanding, then the K3 DSP would
need operator input to change amplitude and phase in order to cancel noise.
Doing the job in a computer sound card and CPU would have a distinct
advantage in that adjustment of phase and amplitude could be automatic.
