There are only a few others that use the single letters that I can think of:
K was 15m up, 10m down T was 15m up, 2m down
The current convention is to use the uplink and downlink bands in a two letter combo with the uplink capitalized. Mode B would be U/v, J is V/u. AO-40 operated primarily in LU/s in this format. The laminated AMSAT frequency guides have the new mode on them, as well as the old designation.
A=10m H=15m V=2m U=70cm L=23cm S=13cm C=6cm X=3cm K=1.5cm
Hope that helps.

Where can I find a current listing of satellite modes by band?
I searched the AMSAT.ORG web site but could not find a list.
I found an old FAQ from 1994 but it only has a half-dozen modes listed.
I want something like this:
Mode A - 2m up / 10m down Mode B - 70cm up / 2m down Mode J - 2m up / 70 cm down
I'm trying to help debug some logging software with ARRL LoTW and want to make sure we have it all right.
