The RS (radio sputnik) series used the 10 and 15 m bands but no other HF bands were used as far as I know. Various OSCARs used freqencies between 28 MHz and 47 GHz with the exception of the 3.4 GHz band. 29.3-29.5 MHz, 145.8-146 and 435-438 MHz were generally used but AO-13 and some of the PACSATs added use of 1260-1270 MHz and 2400-2450 MHz. The rest only appeared in AO-40.

Hello with reference to the US FCC Part 97 and in particular section 97.207 "Space Station" available http://www.arrl.org/FandES/field/regulations/news/part97/c.html#207
Have all of the frequency bands listed below been used in service through the last four decades?
The following frequency bands and segments are authorized to space stations:
(1) The 17 m, 15 m, 12 m and 10 m bands, 6 mm, 4 mm, 2 mm and 1 mm bands; and
(2) The 7.0-7.1 MHz, 14.00-14.25 MHz, 144-146 MHz, 435-438 MHz, 1260-1270 MHz and 2400-2450 MHz, 3.40-3.41 GHz, 5.83-5.85 GHz, 10.45-10.50 GHz and 24.00-24.05 GHz segments.
What power limitations are stipulated for these bands?
