George,
Thanks for your two reply emails.

Boy, I am almost there, but not quite.
I've read the WL Help on Editing Subbands.

1) I see the USA_Extra.subBands file in my Writelog/Programs directory.
2) I also see the program "Edit Subbands" in my Windows/Programs/WriteLog path 
and I can run this OK.
3) I can also see in the WriteLog program, under the menu Bands, the items "Set 
Up Bands..." and "Show Bands..."

Here is what I am seeing...
If I Show Bands (using WL Bands/Show Bands...) I see "1800 khz to 29700 khz"
If I poke the WL "Radio" in the bottom Left Hand corner, I get a pop-up window 
that has only 1800 in the "Select Frequency" set. This set needs to be 
populated with all the USA_EXTRA sub band info. I can manually populate that 
list, and Show it has been populated, however, the next time I run WL, the set 
returns to 1800 (only). Apparently this is the default set.

SO... I think the issue is How to direct WL to use the USA_Extra.subbands file.

I hope this explanation makes sense and you can clarify a bit more.

Thank you,
Jerry/k6iii

Jerry,
Forgot to mention that the files like

USA_Extra.subBands

is in your WriteLog Programs folder and is the "saved" version of your 
changes.  I have created a new one called Field_Day.subBands that I used to 
add things like 2m, 6m, 70cm, etc CW SSB FM etc which I select for that 
activity.  The one you want the program to use is selected via that Edit 
Subbands routine.
