" Perhaps the real question is whether it would be legal to use that rig on the ham bands. Since it can apparently cover the 160 - 10m bands without modification, wouldn't it need to be type accepted?"
Only if the company's intention was to sell specifically to the HAM community. They of course, have the OK for their existing market. Also, any licensed ham could use this radio if it was obtained on the "used" market. If this were NOT legal, we could therefore, not use commercial an old BC transmitter for legal limit AM. Or, for that matter ANY radio not designated for HAM use.....obviously, NOT the case. 73, Charlie k3ICH -----Original Message----- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net <elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net> On Behalf Of Lyn Norstad Sent: Monday, June 29, 2020 10:47 AM To: 'Mark Goldberg' <marklgoldb...@gmail.com>; 'Bob Morgan' <dc10bobmor...@gmail.com> Cc: 'Elecraft Mailing List' <elecraft@mailman.qth.net> Subject: Re: [Elecraft] KPA 500 Codan Envoy Maybe Bob wants to use the Envoy 2 on the ham bands. I'm not familiar with the Codan line of military/business transceivers, but I see that model does have transmit coverage from 1.6 to 30 MHz. Perhaps the real question is whether it would be legal to use that rig on the ham bands. Since it can apparently cover the 160 - 10m bands without modification, wouldn't it need to be type accepted? 73 Lyn, W0LEN ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
