echostats.ini should already have this detail. Have you looked at that file?
The problem with adding the address to badareas.lst is that the file format is: <echo-tag><white-space><title>
So the address, as you have suggested, would become part of the title (sub-board name) when imported in SCFG.
Importing unknown echoes from echostats.ini in SCFG (rather than badareas.lst) might be the solution here.
