[WriteLog] AFSK on RTTY not LSB on 1000mp field

[Jerry Pixton]

Tom,

Be advised that the GOOD filters on the IC756proII are only available in 
the LSB-D modes not in the RTTY. So we must have a new generation of 
designers who have not operated the radios they design. Like so many other 
products we get lots of neat-to-design bells and whistles but the basic 
functionality is lacking (operating systems come to mind) hi
