It doesn't appear to be possible to configure the MK-V to 
select 2000/500/250 for RTTY like CW.  I use the capability 
of my logging programs (DXLab/DXKeeper - for day-to-day 
operation and N1MM Logger for contesting) to select the 
filters.  One could also use MP Filters by K6SE if the 
CAT port is not in use otherwise. 

This is an inexcusable design flaw by Yaesu but there has 
not been any hint of a "factory fix."  It's probably not 
possible to change in existing radios ...
