In some countries yes.
If I remember correctly places like Malta and Thailand require "hard"
band limits in the hardware (firmware), and they check for them too.

Does that requirement exist for home built equipment? Surely you could
argue that the K3 is something you built yourself.
Except for the Foundation level, the authorities seem to take the
attitude, "We publish the band limits, you stick within them, or you

I've asked about this too a couple times, but never saw an answer:
What if I take my K3 on an expedition to place where the US band
limits are not restrictive enough. Some countries are very strict and
require built in TX band limits, which are not the same as the North
American allocations.
