The original purpose of the UK Foundation licence 'approved
kit' rule was to limit the likelihood of a M3 (ie
Foundation) amateur transmitting out of band either by
excessive tuning range or excessive spurious. However the
merit of allowing transmission with home-brew equipment was
recognised.

To digress a little, it is amazing ( to me anyway) how many people
regardless of licence class or country cuddle up to the top edge of their
40m band allocation when transmitting LSB, with their 'unwanted' sideband
and IMD products falling outside of the band. No doubt this happens on 80m
as well.
