WAM=wide band AM N means narrow band, like NFM= narrow band FM, and NAM= narrow band AM USB= Upper side band, and LSB= Lower side band, and CW= Continuous Wave used in moris code (like Hams do) assuming you already know the difference in Am (amplitude modulation) and FM (frequency modulation) H.J. |
