John,

While most of the world has gone to  AFSK using the sound card to 
transmit, I prefer to run in FSK mode.    While this needs  a 
connection to hard key the radio, it also allows use of the FSK filters 
which are quite narrow.   I crank the filter down to 250 hz (narrowest 
setting) and tune slowly across the signal until  JAWS starts speaking.

I haven't messed around with the SSB Data filters in the 590, but it may 
work fine in AFSK.

I've done the FSK thing mentioned above on the TS-2000, 480, and 590.


There is also an article about use of MMTTY on the hamradioandvision.com 
site.
