Don, Thanks for the response and info.
The wording in the Operating Manual made me think that the same values are used for RTTY as for SSB, my mistake. I used Spectogram (surprisingly easy) and have everything working nicely now. On the digital transmission heat issue. The rig is ok on 1-2 minute digital transmissions (e.g., 1-2 minutes of PSK at 30 watts). It'll warm up a bit, although nothing uncomfortable, and the internal fan can handle it. The problem is longer transmissions. For example, I do a lot of file sending for EmComm simulations and those transmissions can run 5-10 minutes at a time. The area above the power transistors gets very uncomfortable on a long transmission like that and people notice drift in my transmissions. For now I've got a desk fan pointed at the rig when doing longer transmissions and that's keeping the rig cool and stable. I'll find myself a muffin fan or smaller desk fan at the next hamfest.
