I have someone that uses 144.260 he calls "ssb". I dont know if I have
this cabibility. I have an icom radio about 3 years old. It is an entry
level I think. I can tune to 144.260. Does this mean I can talk on SSB?

If you do have Single Sideband (SSB), there will be either a 'Mode' switch,
or a 'SSB' switch on the radio. If it doesn't have this switch, then it's an
FM only rig.

Well if the rig is capable of SSB -- there should be a control that allows
you to select: USB/LSB -- FM -- CW -- maybe AM
i.e., an all mode

Otherwise look at the ICOM site for specs

Next time include the ICOM model number -- helps us to respond to you

We'll get our crack mind-reading team right on it.
Once the spirits have given us the model number, we'll get back to you.

Who needs a model number? It either has a mode switch or it doesn't! That
was already stated and is "enuff said".

Uh oh. I've got a Yaesu here that does SSB and a couple of other modes
and....no mode switch. You gotta get there from within the menu.
