I wonder if Doug Smith wrote the following very good explanation
of the Kachina DSP rcvr design theory?  Very well done,  and
I am getting close to "knowing" something about DSP rcvr's,  but still

Guess I "know"  what a roofing filter does,  explained in the link,
but why is it called a "roofing" filter?
