That's interesting since there isn't a 250 Hz roofing filter.  There's a 370
Hz and a 224 Hz, but no 250 Hz.  What did you use for the 250 measurement
above or is that a calculated result?  At any rate, I'll defer to Ed since
he's forgotten more about RTTY than I'll ever know, as his contest results
demonstrate.  ;-)
