Well, most Jeff Riggs will generically put you on the mode you're supposed to be on, even though you can go anywhere you want. Like for instance, I think that, I'm just doing this from the mental. You're doing the right thing reading it up. It'll be like older days when we had to go to the library using the internet. But, um, so that's a, your, your, your deal is what it's supposed to be. You're supposed to look this up. That's fine. But if I was just to go off the TLP, seems like anything past 30 megahertz. So then you're going past 11, 12 into 20 meters on 14. All those would be upper side for voice. And then as you go lower than 30 megahertz, you know, you go past nine and eight megahertz, you ignore those. Ain't got nothing to do with you. Seven with the 40 meters, then it's lower side. The other thing is, cause if you have like really old radios where it doesn't distinguish, it just puts you all over the place. Well then you naturally just follow the voice. People aren't going to screw it up. Like you're not going to in some upper side on lower. You could, they straight up just don't care. But that's not how they usually do it. So then you can easily just follow their voices. Just like how 20 meters, even if you absolutely did know you follow someone's voice, chances are it'll be upper. And then the rest of it, like AM and FM, they just don't use anymore. So if there's allocations for that, I don't even remember them. Like special frequencies where you're supposed to be probably so you don't bleed over to other people. I don't remember. Yeah, my radio is smart enough it switches automatically. If I get into, even within the bands, if I get into frequency ranges that are only CW, it'll switch into CW mode. If I rode past somewhere that's AM, it kicks over into AM, it's great. It saves me a lot of thinking, but I still want to be sure, so I always double check. That's the one nice thing with the new radios. They're a lot easier to play around with if you can do firmware programming. You know, unblocking stuff to be a matter of changing firmware. A lot easier than getting in and doing hardware mods.
