This would depend on the particular radio model and how the developer
chose to support it. Unfortunately "Kenwood 2000" isn't an actual
model number so I will assume that you are referring to a Kenwood
TS-2000.

In this case the TS-2000 driver only supports "LSB", "USB", "CW", "FM"
and "AM" in which case the FM would be the typical 25KHz channel
spacing. The NFM (12.5KHz) and wider WFM (broadcast) bandwidths are
not supported.

My Kenwood TH-F6a, on the other hand, supports "FM", "WFM", "AM",
"LSB", "USB" and "CW".
