I'll confess I probably am not fully understanding your issue.

Nevertheless, when you use "Pitch" to set the tone to 2125 take a look at 
"Shift" on the IF/DSP control and see if it reads "*2.21".  This should be the 
default value.  When it is so, then you can change "Width" to limit the garbage 
you receive around your desired signal.  I assume you have "Net" and "AFC" 
turned off in your RTTY program.

Personally, I like the 915 pitch, since I like to listen to signals as well as 
watching them on the RTTY screen and/or panadapter and the lower tone is much 
easier on my ears. So I set up MMTTY for 915/170.
