Re: Half-duplex on the Kenwood TH-F6A
Nah, no worries! It's a fun mode, but can be a challenge tuning to keep up by hand.

Ahhh, my apologies Drew. I should have said previously uncommon modes instead of unheard of modes. As I am relatively new to the Amateur Satellite community, I'm sure there is plenty that I am unaware of, and this is an example of that. Again, my apologies. I'm looking forward to seeing how things play out in the future.

From: Zach Leffke zleffke@vt.edu This technology will allow previously unheard of modes of operation that could allow these types of HTs to complete a QSO. Imagine a software defined transponder that receives an uplink in FM and downlinks SSB.
I did that on AO-16 after we put it in "bent pipe" mode, although that was FM to DSB. The ISIS cubesat radios also have this ability, and I think we'll see it on some of those soon.
