Just watching the program.....
Even ON ( Checked) The program transmits from 00 to 15, rec 15 to 30 transmits 30 to 45, recv 45 to 00.

Odd just flips them all.

Your way of reasoning 'even' and 'odd', when referring to 15 second periods, 
assumes that the even periods begin at the 00, 15, 30 & 45 second marks. Others 
may reason that the first period starts at second number 01 and not second number 
00.  Have European meteor scatter enthusiasts always considered the first 15 second 
period of each minute to be odd or even?

Admittedly, I am new to the game, having only been in this leg of digital for a 
few years, but even before that, 1st/EVEN meant he who transmits in the first 
sequence of the EVEN minute.  The is used throughout the modes, which, by the 
way, don’t limit themselves to 15, 30 and 60 second sequences.  The fast modes 
have 5, 10, 15, and 30 second sequences.  I’ve never seen any confusion over 
what is 1st/even vs 2nd/odd.

However, I’m curious if this discussion might answer why I see JA calling CQ US 
on ODD sequence, and I understand that at least some EU stations operating the 
same way, transmitting to us on EVEN.

I’ve never seen this discussion before, but have been on digital since the 
early 80s.
