I am interested in opening up as much bandwidth as possible to
provide maximum versatility for communication. This would include the
MARS bands. We have several folks here with General and Extra class
licenses. I don't think our radios should be encumbered with the
limitation of band width.

If you have a MARS authorization, Elecraft will provide the patch.
However, you do not need it for ARES and/or RACES operations which
are strictly amateur based.  In essence, operate within your amateur
authorizations - don't decide you "need it" just because you want it.

Of course, you will learn that the rules mean something once you have
been licensed more than a couple of years - the current examinations
obviously don't stress that the rules trump any entitlement.
