Hi Joe, given the varying and strict regulations on 60m I would say delete any 60m default frequencies. Having said that, we do not have a mechanism for purging them from existing user's settings files and I'm not sure such a feature could be easily added. Maybe some special code in startup that removes them and sets another settings flag to stop it executing again, not perfect but doable. 73 Bill G4WJS. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ wsjt-devel mailing list wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel
