NOTE from WØJT: Mode A is NON-INVERTING, so use USB on both the up and down 
links, and as you tune HIGHER in the UP link passband you tune HIGHER in 
the DOWN link passband.

Mode B is INVERTING, so use LSB on the UP link and USB on the DOWN link. As 
you tune HIGHER in the UP link passband you tune LOWER in the DOWN link 
passband.

WØJT sez: Mode J is INVERTING, so use LSB on the UP link and USB on the 
DOWN link. As you tune HIGHER in the UP link passband you tune LOWER in the 
DOWN link passband.
