I agree with Julian - this could be programmed by the user, maybe via some
nice CAT commands. An advantage would be restricting a remote-controlled K3
from transmitting on bands where the antenna doesn't work / causes TVI /
interferes with the beer dispenser.
Those of us outside the FCC's
Why not leave it up to the operator to know where the band edges are,
as did analogue radios of yore? Do hams really need a digital nanny to
remind them where the bands start and end? These limits only cause
frustration when the band allocations change (as did 40m a couple of
years ago here)
There's not much amateur radio activity outside the amateur radio bands (:o]

I think you'd be surprised.
In that vein, I wonder what our FCC regs say about manufacturers of Ham
equipment selling rigs that are opened up
The country of my residence, Thailand, requires all transmitters (except cel
telephones) to be registered upon importation. The Thai equiv. of FCC will
not approve a transmitter that transmitts out of the now-existing ham bands
and NOT ON SIX METERS NOR ON SIXTY METERS AT ALL. If the

I sympathise with your situation. I'd be more sympathetic if your

Snip tale of authoritarian woe
I'm presuming that HS has enough attractions to make up for its poor
treatment of amateur radio, otherwise

Dang it Wayneyou guys are just too reasonable and show too much common
I know it sounds exactly opposite to the purpose of the feature, but
will it be possible to change the frequency limits- i.e. if I want to
take my K3 on a trip to somewhere with restrictive rules?
Perhaps a special firmware download?

We will be providing K3's programmed for specific markets (such as
Thailand) with TX limitations when required. In the U.S. though, I
believe there are no FCC TX limits under part 97. As a matter of policy
though we do block 100w transmit in the U.S. CB band.

Guys - This thread has now ended. :-)
Also, it is inappropriate for anyone to personally berate or hassle
others on the list. Please remember that our list guidelines strongly
state this. Polite disagreement and discussion is OK, but calling names
etc will not be allowed.
