DATA A is a general purpose mode. It is SSB with some features that
could cause distortion (like the speech processor) disabled. It is data
mode agnostic: you can run RTTY, PSK, Olivia, DRM, ...
We also put some specialized modes under the DATA umbrella. AFSK, FSK D
and PSK D are the current ones.
AFSK and FSK D assume you are probably running RTTY, or at least an FSK
mode with similar data rate and the same shift. The dual tone filter
(DTF) is thus available for AFSK and for FSK D, but not for DATA A or PSK D.
The reason for the various tone pairs is that some of you will likely
want to run an external decoder and/or encoder (MTTY, or HRD+DM780, for
example) and these programs often assume certain standard tone pairs
will be used. We put the most popular of these as selectable pairs.
