You can at least congratulate yourselves that you're going at it in the right way, subsuming both the "transmission" and "reception"

One of my Smarter Colleagues[tm] is of the opinion that neither transmission nor reception filtering alone is sufficient, but that both are necessary and sufficient. I don't grok his math, but his arm-waving seems persuasive...

And yes, at the current price, I'll subscribe to be able to comment, or have a free account auto-canceled for spamming.
