The "SQ" button no longer enables/disables the squelch but sets it slightly above the current noise floor. This reproduces the behavior of the OpenWebRX squelch button, that I really like.
I replaced the first order auto-regressive smoothing filter by a short maximum (rank order) filter, that results in constant opening/closing times of the squelch. In the current implementation, the exponential smoothing results in longer closing times with longer noise tails for stronger stations. Since I prefer a shorter closing time that is independent from the signal level, I simply use the maximum value of the last N power values.
