Worth a read. I think I'll go with Eric's (K6EP) approach.

>> Start a new log for "North American Sprint" - CW.
>> Go to "Bands/Setup_Bands" and click on "Clear All
>> Bands" to delete the CW bands then add 3 FSK bands:
>>
>> Low_Edge High_Edge Mode Title
>> 3500 4000 FSK 80M Click on "Add this band"
>> 7000 7300 FSK 40M "
>> 14000 14350 FSK 20M "
>>
>> then click "Cancel" and "OK"
