The ADIF standard is MHz.  Bands are defined with MHz limits.  How a
program (or LOTW) displays those frequencies is up to those programs.
You'll find that the DXLab Suite adheres very closely to the ADIF and
with good reason if you see who is a main driver behind the latter.
:-)

SAT_MODE and SAT_NAME are both strings, not enumerated variables, so
it's up to the software author to put something there that makes
sense.

This is what AA6YQ is trying to do but, sadly, AMSAT doesn't have a
standard it's willing to stick with.
