If one centers their filters at 2210 Hz in RTTY mode for use in RTTY, then is RTTY no longer the mode of choice for PSK31? Would you just use USB for PSK31 and adjust your speech compression? Are RTTY and PSK31 both useable
with RTTY mode with filters centered around 2210 Hz?

PSK31 can be used at any center frequency, so 2210 Hz won't be a problem.

I use Cocoamodem and MMTTY for RTTY, and have adjusted them for frequencies of 1415 and 1585 for Mark and Space, respectively. This gives me a 1500 Hz center frequency, which is perfect for using the DSP filters as well.

One problem with using 2210 Hz as a center frequency with the K2 is that you may not have sufficient BFO range to center your filters for both sidebands. You may have to modify the BFO to get greater range. Having both sidebands centered is important. Even though you might only use the LSB sideband for RTTY, remember the sidebands are swapped on 15m and above due to the inversion.
