I think that the way it should work is this — if coordinated band hopping is 
selected (which is the only band hopping option for now) then an active 
coordinated band will be visited according to the coordinated schedule that you 
referenced. Otherwise, a random selection is made from the list of currently 
active bands. 630m should be an allowed member of the set of active bands, as 
should 6m/2m, etc. 

Thus, it should have worked when Eric had band hopping enabled and 630m was the 
only active band. 

As for the other case that Eric mentioned (band hopping _not_ selected, band 
set to 630m, TX enabled). For this case, my proposal was to still use the same 
10x6 tx table to control whether or not to TX. In fact, I tested this here over 
the weekend using 40m (band hopping not selected, band set to 40m, TX enabled) 
and it seemed to work OK. I tested it again just now by unchecking the band 
hopping box after a hop to 30m. It seems to work fine - on the next cycle the 
band stayed on 30m and the rig transmitted according to the schedule in the tx 
table. 

If we are going to stick with this approach, then the logic should allow for 
consulting the tx table even if band hopping is off and the current band is an 
uncoordinated band…
