Calling Frequencies
SSB, CW, ALE, or SELCALL may be used for calling or QSOs on the HFpack SSB Calling frequencies.
Standard
CW
Offset
Approximately 500Hz to 1kHz CW dial offset is used on the HFpack HF Portable SSB calling frequencies. Cross-mode CW to SSB QSOs (Upper Sideband voice) are encouraged, especially when signal levels are low or conditions are not reliable for SSB-SSB QSOs. The use of an offset CW dial frequency enables other HFpack operators who are listening on SSB to hear the CW without re-tuning. 
Use + offset for USB Compatible CW.

Note about Upper Sideband use by HFpack
Upper SideBand (USB) is the standard on all HF bands for HFpack SSB voice QSOs, including the bands below 10MHz! USB has become the international standard for non-amateur HF SSB voice and other modulation methods. The HFpack and HFLINK groups have adopted the UpperSideBand Standard to achieve complete compatibility with a wide variety of commercial and mil portable HF radio systems that amateurs are using. With the advent of simultaneous "multimedia" SSB voice, CW, image, text, selcall, ALE Automatic Link Establishment, HF-APRS, and digitized QSOs on the same channel, UpperSideBand standardization will become even more important.
