[RTTY] RTTY and FT1000MP Mk V

[ckuter@ix.netcom.com]

Look into MMTTY's BPF (Bandpass filter) and the Notch filters.  You can set
two notches in the menu. Set the notch strength at twice the default value.
Then place a notch at either side ofthe display to ward off offending signals.
This helped a lot with my KNWD 570.
