60 Meter shows Out of Band (Yellow and red Triangle)

Hi, was looking for previous posts on this but could not find any. Earlier this week 60m band was approved in the Dominican Republic, but when operating on that band, Log4OM shows a Yellow and Red Triangle and says I´m out of band, but qsos are logged correctly.

Is there a way to included 60m as a valid band? I have checked on Configuration, Users Preferences and 60m is included there. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks Aldo, yes I have my correct zone (IARU 2), maybe they haven't updated their records yet, as the authorization is from Thursday.

Hi Santiago,

60 meters is not included in actual R2 bandplan but it can be edited with Notepad ++ or other
editors. By the way, i found in a 60 meter band Wiki that you have 5 channels there allowed
now ? If yes it´s better to edit the Bandplan_R2 and save the edited one as bandplan_dxcc72.xml ....

This will override the bandplan_r2.xml and nothing will be changed if there´s a new R2 bandplan
in upcoming versions. You´ll find the bandplans in the config folder. There is a Bandplan folder in
which contains the actual bandplans.

Here the part of the Wiki i found:
Dominican Republic (ITU Region 2): Amateurs have been granted permission to use seven 5 MHz channels. These are 5258.5, 5278.5, 5288.5, 5366.5, 5371.5, 5398.5 and 5403.5 kHz. Modes currently permitted are USB and CW. (Source: HI8HH and KQ6XA e-mails)
