I believe the LMS (least-mean square) algorithm used for autonotch automatically notches all CW signals. It would probably be quite difficult to modify it to treat some frequencies differently than others. > In theory it makes sense to me, but I have no clue what would be involved to > make it work. Probably the way to do it is to (1) process the input signal using the standard LMS algorithm, (2) also process the input signal with a narrow band-pass filter tuned to the center of the passband, and then (3) combine the output of the two processes. It seems like that should work and wouldn't be too hard to implement.
