just a thought... If you de-activate digital modes, you will have all 
rtty spots as grey spots. So no alert. Of course this does not solve the 
problem because you will loose any possible new band on rtty will be 
also grey spot. But usually someone will spot the station without the 
word rtty, so you have good chances to see the spot...
