Mike and George are correct of course except for the fact I would be
the first to "boink" the bandmap. When I wrote that I was really thinking
of a keyboard entry instead of having to delete the bandmap file. For
DXing I bring up TRLog with a bat file for General logging that does the
delete, but that's a work-around.

Might be better to have this command work when you are in CTL-END
bandmap mode. Today we have several options when we are in that mode,
show all, show mults, etc. The cmd [Delete All]  might not be as useful as
in the past and really only for a few of us. Back-burner kind of idea,
unless
its a few lines of code or something simple.
