My MK-V Works just fine (500 Hz filters in NAR2) in the PKT 
mode for AFSK (LSB audio).  I did modify the offset and tuning 
indicator slightly (instructions in the manual) to match the 
the standard (high tones) FSK tones (2125/2295 AFSK) and use 
2210 Hz for PSK.  

The thing I find amazing is that the filter selection is set 
for 2400/2000/500 (or 250) instead of 2000/500/250 for 
nor/nar1/nar2.  It would have been so easy to make the RTTY/PKT 
filter selections the same as CW instead of LSB/USB! 

Yes, one can select almost any filter combination with computer 
control but that's not the point <G>.
