Jim,

That is what I concluded was going on with my FT2000 during the RU. The %O 
function seems to turn RIT Off instead of RIT Clear.

There is a new command format for the newer Yaesu radios using ASCII 
commands like the Kenwoods did, instead of fixed block commands like my 
FT-1000mp did.

So I see there is an "RC" command that supposedly clears the Clarifier. 
There is an "RT" command that turns the Clarifier Off or On. And an "RU" 
command to set a plus offset for RIT and an "RD" command that sets a minus 
offset for Clarifier (RIT and Tx Clar????)

The radio is acting like an "RT" command was being sent by %O for the 
FT2000 instead of an "RC"???
