The one thing that AFSK *does* buy you is that you will be EXACTLY 
zero-beat with the station that you are calling.  This is because most good 
software (RITTY and I assume Writelog) will adjust the transmit tones to 
match the receive tones, no matter how low or high they are.

This is NOT true of FSK where you tune the receive audio until you can 
copy, but the radio generates the tones.
