Modes of Communication
Amateurs use a variety of voice, text, image, and data communications modes over radio. Generally new modes can be tested in the amateur radio service, although national regulations may require disclosure of a new mode to permit radio licensing authorities to monitor the transmissions.

The following is a partial list of the modes of communication used, where the mode includes both modulation types and operating protocols.

Of unknown modes of being; o’er my thoughts
