I use the 200 hz filter on RTTY all the time including
the ARRL RTTY Round UP.
I set up my 200 hz filter as a 300 hz filter in the
config menu.
I used DATA A and 1500 hz with the PWR setting
cut back to about 40 watts which gave me about
80 watts on the meter but it seemed to work well
for me until the power issue is fixed.
I used MIXW and set up F12 to
<ALIGN:1505>
<CATCMD:k31;fw0030;k30;>
<SPZOOM:4>
Then I set up F8 to
<CLEARTXWINDOW><CLEARRXWINDOW><CLEARQSO>
<CATCMD:k31;fw4000;k30;>
<SPZOOM:2>
and F4 to
SAVEQSO><CLEARTXWINDOW>
<CATCMD:k31;fw4000;k30;>
<SPZOOM:2>
I have the 6 khz filter and could click on any
signal in the wide spectrum than hit F12 and
work them. The program even marks the
stations I have already worked in RED on
the water fall.
I set up F1 to call and f2 to exchange.
I am not much of a contester and only put
in a few hours for a total of 58 contacts but
the people I worked did not know that.If
I had put in more time I know I could have done
much better.
73 and hope this works well for other people.
