Agree with Bill's suggestion - no default 60m WSPR frequency in the
application. Anyone wishing to use the mode on that band will need to
consciously input a frequency based on their local regulations and practice.
Things might get better if an actual (even if small) "band" is eventually
authorized, instead of the current channelized system.
