Michael,
MARS requires us to not disclose the frequencies we use or their
designators, but I do use my K3 on MARS frequencies quite successfully.
There is one modification required, and some self imposed limitations.
The modification is accomplished by running a program Elecraft can
provide; it is easily revered should you choose to by using the same
program.
The frequency allocations differ a bit bit associated service (Army
MARS, Navy Marine Corps MARS, Air Force Mars), but each one will tell
you theirs on admission.
So, don't worry, your K3 will work very will on the MARS frequencies and
digital modes they use (with the right sound card software, etc.).
Good luck!

Is anyone using the K3 for MARS work?
If so, can you contact me off-list to provide more info?
I'm interested in getting involved with MARS. But the application simply
asks if you're able to transmit/receive on MARS frequencies without
specifying what those frequencies are. So, I'd like to know what
frequencies I need to worry about and what, if any, modifications are needed
to the K3 to make it able to participate in MARS work.
Thanks in advance.
