There is one thing has been bothering me for a while and I am sure there
are some knowledgable people here who can explain this.

ITU R1 band plan says:

* - Lowest dial setting for LSB Voice mode: 1843, 3603 and 7053 kHz*

But it does not mention the highest dial setting for USB on 20-10 meters.

So is it allowed to work USB on 14349 what concerns the band plan?

IARU Region 1 and Region 2 band plans both also say:

*Transmitting frequencies: The announced frequencies in the band plan are
understood as “transmitted frequencies” and not those of the suppressed
carrier!*

What does it mean? Does it mean that furthermore, it is stressed that 14349
is OK as it is the transmitted frequency?
