I remember that a good DTMF decoder can be very simplistic: DTMF was designed
for that.

The idea is:

- separate the high tones from the low tones.
- amplify clip the high band and the low band separately
- run the tone decoders on the clipped signals

The clipping stage would make sure that only relatively pure tones will trigger
the detector.
