OK, Leslie, you aren't making sense here.

A few posts ago, you stated that you wanted mode U/V or V/U on Eagle.  
Now you say you don't want to deal with a 2m antenna?

I'm confused.  From this post, it sounds like what you want is mode U/S 
which is what you have.  Why then did you say that you wouldn't support 
a satellite that didn't have U/V or V/U?
