Comments:

Limited operation from home using a low 40m dipole.
Yes, tuner allows 20m operation (80m too).

Submitted as M/2 though never used spots.
Usually use Orion II / Microkeyer for FSK.

But set up FTdx5000 for audio modes (FT4/FT8) for VHF contest,
and simply used it for NAQP (AFSK) RTTY without thought. 

BUT, click on Available Station - not there, or someone else there.
Repeat. Weird. (Really empty spot: Start run; 2 or so QSOs then get stepped
on).
Start old fashioned tune to find stations: Noticed that found stations are
spotted about 2kHz lower on band map. Ah, 2125kHz. Must be some setting
somewhere. Look around; try lots of things; do internet search. Nada. Carry on
with tune and work.

Post contest, N3QE provides answer: A most obvious setting, "Turn
AutoTRXUPdate On/Off" in the N1MM+ Digital Interface Window. :-(
