Unfortunately, as Ed mentioned, there is no way to control NET when
using AFSK. NET is always on. This makes 2Tone basically unusable in
the main Rttyrite window when running AFSK. I tried it and it's not
anything nice. However, MMTTY can still be run in the main Rttyrite
window and 2Tone can be used in a cloned window when running AFSK.

I concur with Don's assessment with regard to 2Tone and "NET" with
AFSK.  However, if one ignores the AFSK output and uses 2Tone as a
second decoder along side MMTTY or with FSK (by whatever means) the
Net status is unimportant since 2Tone's AFC is limited to +/- 60 Hz
which never leaves the receive frequency too far from zero beat.

With AFSK, this can be an issue when "running" as there is no way to
reset the tones to default with each new QSO - meaning a series of off
frequency callers can "pull" a running station in one direction or the
other.
