AO-7 - Mode B mid-passband is 432.150 mHz up/145.950 mHz down. FO-29 - Mode J mid passband is 145.950 mHz up/435.850 mHz down. VO-52 - Mode B mid passband is 435.250 mHz up/145.900 mHz down.
Doppler, of course, also will affect the CW/SSB satellites.
Welcome to the satellites! Very best 73s,

I wonder if, for the newcomer, the term U/V etc may be easier to understand than a seemingly arbitary letter that you then need to research to understand what band your uplink and downlink should be on.

Yes, of course, those designations would make things easier.
Mode J - VHF uplink/UHF downlink
Mode B - UHF uplink/VHF downlink -------------- Original message from G0MRF@aol.com: --------------
