Harry,
This was taken off W8ZR's website. See if this helps.
"
The manual incorrectly labels the choices of menu items 7-7 (EDSP Enhanced
Modulation and Demodulation) (Update note: these now corrected). This menu
item turns on or off the DSP filtering for several modes. Also, the default
setting for CW reception was ON and this choice caused me considerable grief
until I changed it. The default setting evidently sets the 4th IF DSP
bandwidth for "normal" CW reception to 2.0 kHz. This is fine if the optional
2.0 kHz filters are installed, but if they aren't then the DSP bandwidth
doesn't match the bandwidth of the supplied 2.4 kHz filters. This mismatch
means that strong CW signals outside the 2.0 kHz DSP bandwidth can capture
the AGC, wiping out the weak signal you're trying to listen to. Deactivating
the DSP for this mode solved the problem, but until I figured out the
solution, I was almost ready to ask for my money back."

SSB. You may have seen my earlier posts, but my Field 's AGC is getting
swamped by strong sigs 5 kCs away! I know something is amiss among the 7-7
EDSP and 5-0 SSB filter setting menus. The manual is not clear what so ever
on how to do the proper settings under 5-0. I'm frustrated.
