[Lowfer] Using Argo

[John Fickes]

          I have run into this before with my Icom's and I found this on
another discussion.

Icom transceiver User Manuals consistently state that CW and RTTY are LSB,
and that CW-R and RTTY-R are USB.
See for example the "About CW Reverse Mode" and "About RTTY Reverse Mode"
sections on pages 4-5 and 4-14 respectively of the IC-7800 User Manual.
          Hope I'm close.
