[arm-allstar] DTMF Masking

[David McGough]

Hi William,

Ah, so the DTMF is coming in-bound to your node from another node, via a
link??  ...As you've found, remote-originating DTMF tones don't get
locally processed (at your end), so, at least they won't accidentally
activate an AllStar feature.

It's possible that the app_rpt notch-filter capability could reduce the
amplitude of these tones, making them less noticeable. I haven't actually
tried the notch capability for this type application....Has anyone else
tried this? ...If not, I'll give it a whirl and report back.
