yes, that is what i meant. i didn't even know amplitude shift keying
existed.

am i correct about afsk being audio tones transmitted over FM, while
fsk is just alternating between two non-modulating frequencies?

That's pretty close, but not exactly on target.

AFSK can be used on top of either AM or FM. In amateur systems it's
most commonly used with FM.

FSK shifts the carrier frequency... a process which counts as a
modulation. The amount of frequency shift (in Hz) and the rate at
which you shift it (also in Hz) vary a lot from one usage to another.
There are both narrow-band and wide-band FSK modulations in use.
