When a QSO is uploaded, TQSL will use the BAND if it's set and if not, try
to convert the FREQ to a band.
The current version ignores the FREQ if it's outside of the band.
Prior versions of TQSL would reject a QSO if the BAND and FREQ weren't
consistent.
In short, you shouldn't worry about the Logbook QSOs as they're going to
use the BAND for your QSOs when generating a match.
