David,
The components exist, but they have not been assembled. One approach
would be to use the NonUniformImage class in place of image to handle
the log axis case. A variation would be to use pcolorfast. Evidently
we need to add a log scale option to the existing specgram. I can't do
it right now--maybe someone else will.
