    The ARRL band plans do not list the sub bands and recommendations
for ALL modes.  You will note that they don't even show SSB for most
of the HF bands, just specific recommendations like SSTV, DX Window
etc.

    As for the 10 meter plan, the 29.6 that you cite is the recommended
Simplex
calling frequency.  Repeater inputs and outputs, and probably Sat. downlinks
are also FM.
