Let $PC$ be the algebra of complex-valued, piecewise-continuous functions from $[-\infty,+\infty]$, $SO$ be the algebra of bounded, continuous, complex-valued functions on $\mathbb R$ which are slowly oscillating at infinity and $[PC,SO]$ be the closed subalgebra of $L^\infty (\mathbb R)$ generated by $PC$ and $SO$. Let $\mathcal A_{[PC,SO]}$ be the the closed subalgebra of $\mathcal B(L^2(\mathbb R))$ generated by operators 
$a\mathcal F^{-1}b\mathcal F$ where $\mathcal F$ is the Fourier transform and $a,b\in [PC,SO]$.

For $v\in(0,\infty)$, $a\in [PC,SO]$ let $a_v\in PC$ be given by: 
$f_v(x)=f_v(-v+0)$ if $x\le -v$;
$f_v(x)=f(x)$ if $x\in (-v,v)$ ;
$f_v(x)=f_v(v-0)$ if $x\ge v$.


The question I need to answer is if 
$T=\sum_{i=1}^N \prod_{j=1}^M a_{i,j}\mathcal F^{-1}b_{i,j}\mathcal F$
($a_{i,j}, b_{i,j}\in [PC,SO]$) is invertible, does it follow that
$T_v:=\sum_{i=1}^N \prod_{j=1}^M (a_{i,j})_v\mathcal F^{-1}(b_{i,j})_v\mathcal F$
is Fredholm.

The answer to the above must be "yes" if $T\mapsto T_v$ extends continuously to $\mathcal A_{[PC,SO]}$. In that case we would have that $T_v$ would have to be invertible. My instinct is that this is true, probably allowing much more general functions. I also guess the answer must be fairly obvious to anyone with a better understanding of harmonic analysis.

My motivation is to extend a Fredholm-index formula from 
$\mathcal A_{PC}$ to $\mathcal A_{[PC,SO]}$.
