Inverting transponders exist to reduce the total Doppler shift. Since the Doppler shift on 10 meters is so low, there's no real need to invert the passband.

Why does Mode A have a normal transponder, whereas Mode B uses an inverting transponder?

Are there many stations doing Mode A at all? I haven't worked too many people on that mode before, but it is a lot of fun. Once it switches to Mode A, what causes it to eventually go back to Mode B?
Perhaps a novice question: Is there any reason not to work it in Mode A when it switches?
