That sems to be a bug in the bandmap logic. Thanks for reporting. I
will fix it in next time.

Better use 'CONTEST=qso' and do NOT use 'CONTEST_MODE'. If you would
like to see your qso numbers on the different bands add 'SCORINGWINDOW'
to  the rule file or activate it from running tlf with ':score'
If you would run tlf contest style (say for a DXpedition) than use
CONTEST=dxped. 

Both settings allow to work all warc bands but give no contest scoring
for the qsos.

Because the limited place for the scoring window you will always see
only some of the bands. If you are on a non WARC band tlf will show the
contest bands only, as soon as you switch to a warc band you will see
the warc bands.
