- The earlier comment about reading the Handbook is a good one, and if you're interested in a more in-depth but very readable treatment of the topic, I recommend "Reflections II" by Walt Maxwell, W2DU.

- Yes. The RTTY filter is built for the first IF (9 MHz) and is already shifted. The 2nd IF, 6.3 MHz, needs to be offset to match, so, yes, that turns out to be just where you have it set. Remember, ce
