I do not have an answer for this, but this combination MKV, Rig Blaster 
and MMTTY always is the one that needs help to get on FSK.

I wonder if someone who has done this combo could write an set of 
instructions on how to do it?  I would be happy to put it on my website 
or send it to AA5AU for his website.

I am glad that Jim W5QM wants to use FSK and I am glad that he came to 
this RTTY group for help.  But we get this question asked at least once 
a month.

So please help.
