The so called "filter" was only programmed because the fifo entries
were being mixed up. Sebastian fixed that.

The "filter" code is nonsensical. It picks the two values in seqeunce
that are closest to one and another. How is that supposed to work?

Did you look at the "noise"? What kind of properties did you see?

A median filter makes more sense. Or sort, remove outliers, and
average. But choosing the two closest in series is silly.
