Subject: [eagle] Re: Service class
names
The H had been
designated for AO-40 for the H service on that satellite. H service was "high
frequency" (15m and 10m) operation. Lyle notes also that V and S have prior
references, as would B.
It is a difficult
mine field.

Team:
I learned at Symposium
that some don't like some of the class names we've been using to discuss
various services.
I reaffirmed at Symposium that we need consistent
names for the services we'll provide, just like we've settled on band
names.
To give us the precise nomenclature I think we need for
effective communication, I propose:
Class A
for what we used to call Class 0 (A from the old "Analog", which we need to
stamp out.)
Class S for what we used to call Class 1 (S
from SMS)
Class V for what we used to call Class 2
(small station digital Voice)
Class H for what we used
to call Class 3 (High rate)
I started with A, B, . . . and
decided to propose more intuitive names.
Unless one of you strongly
objects in the next few hours, I'll have the ANS announcement and AMSAT web
page updated.
It was great to see many of you this
weekend.
Thanks & 73,
Jim
