Oliver,

Did you buy a used KX3? The prior owner may have requested and installed the MARS software which opens up transmit to non-ham band frequencies. Contact [email protected] to find out how to restore normal US band limits.

Hi all,

Several years back there were discussions about how to limit KX3 transmit
capability to the regional ham bands applicable to a KX3 user.  As a USA
user, I wanted to revisit this topic to see if my recent firmware (v. 2.76)
allows enforcement of these limits.  On page 42 of the KX3 manual, there is
a reference to the BND END message that is supposed to appear if I transmit
out of the ham band in my radio, however it puts out full power in CW mode
(using a dummy load) at 2.5 MHz for example with no displayed message.  I
can use the TX Inhibit control line (via the ACC2 connector) to prevent TX,
but would also like software enforcement.

Could someone please clarify whether ham band TX enforcement is available
for my KX3?
