[Dx4win] Band Map

[Rick Murphy]

It also works fine on 12, 10, and 6 meters on my 756 Pro III. I also
checked when tuning below the band edge and the arrow appears to track
at least a little bit below the band.

One thing that I think can confuse DX4WIN is if you have CI-V
"Transceive" turned on. That tells the rig to broadcast frequency
changes, which can interfere with DX4WIN polling.
