Dear Jim,
In rtty mode FSK or AFSK the mark V will have only two filters : wide and narrow.
I have the standard 500 hz filter in my rig and an option filter in the 455 khz IF 270 Hz.
I can neither select these filters as explained in the manual or in the brochure, where you should select normal : 2,3 narrow 1 : 500 narrow 2 : 270
In practice only : normal 2,3 and narrow 2 : 500 or 270 as described below
During contest I run mostly 500 hz wide, when the band becomes crowed I use 270 Hz by selecting the filter menu option 8.x .
After setting the filter in this menu , you have to push the narrow filter buttom again to activate the new selected filter. In the menu 8,x you can select also 500/250 or
2,3/250 cascade filtering.
With the mp rig the filter selection was much better and flexible, the ts850 and 950 serie from Kenwood has also this way of swithing filters.
