Lookin for band convention
 
I'm looking for a good reference for amateur frequency 'convention', i.e.:
were USB is commonly used, where LSB is commonly used, where AM is commonly
used, where RTTY is commonly used, where FM is commonly used, etc. (NOT just
what's legal on what frequencies.) Surely some one has come with some kind
of chart or table.

Lookin for band convention
 
Bob for SSB Convention: By tradition, 20M and up is Upper Sideband, 40M and
below is Lower Sideband. An exception is the new 60M Ham Band -- use USB.
This protocol came about as a matter of convenience in early SSB transceiver
design and has remained to this day. And yes - you can operate either
sideband legally where phone is allowed. And yes you can operate CW on the
phone bands -- but best stay with the protocols.

As to useage several references- see URL's
