CT does this on the 160M contests too. I found that when you first start,
just enter an in-band freq on the command line, like 144000 for 2M, and CT
stops complaining. After that CT runs fine from then on.

>>If you make your first log entry on 2M, you get an "Out of Band! 14000000"
>>message, also if you do an ALT-F4 you get the message "On Spot Freq: 14.0".

>>IF the first entry is on 50 Mhz or 222 Mhz, NO PROBLEM !!! Any contacts on

>>My solution is to log the first entry, if it is a 2M contact, as a 6M
>>contact and then go back and change the Band to 144 Mhz.
