To try and answer this question completely, I generated a single Spectrogram

1) A typical dual peak RTTY filter response (expect the K3 looks like

The RTTY decoder in fldigi is very good - I use this source in DM780.
Knowing how it works I am sure that a very tight 200Hz or 250Hz filter would
be fine. In fact it would be interesting to compare the K3's RTTY decoding
with external software, I'll do this sometime...
