Logging QSO in 60m band

Hello,
I am trying to log a CW QSO on 5332 KHz CW (60m band) and am unable to do so. Selecting 60m in the band dropdown gives me the error symbol (yellow triangle) and if I try to save the record, I receive the message "Unable to save QSO. Data missing."
How do I log a QSO on the 60m band?
Thank you,
Kevin KZ3L

I found this thread:

Does this remain the best way to fix this?

Yes because it's impossible for us to know the 60m variations for every country and it's changing all the time.

Thank you, Terry.
Recommend mentioning this in the user manual for others who run into the same issue.
I also discovered that locking the frequency and manually entering 5330.5 (the bottom edge of the band) worked okay.

I have modified the files bandplan_r2.xml and bandplan_dxcc291.xml so that they recognize 60 meter CW and SSB for the United States. I am attaching copies of both and anyone that needs them is welcome to them. Copy them to your bandplan folder that is in the Log4OM config folder, overwriting the files that are there. I suggest you first make copies of the original files in case something goes wrong.
Enjoy,
