If the relay has clicked, you are no longer on the 60m band.  If you 
have the broadcast filters, you may well be in general coverage mode. 
Unless you have the rig configured to disable out of band operation (I 
think that is the factory default), there seems to be no problem.

The lowest UK authorised channel centre is 5260kHz , making the lowest 
channel edge 5258.5kHz

Incidentally, looking at the RSGB 5MHz FAQ 
<http://www.rsgb-spectrumforum.org.uk/5mhz%20faqs.htm>, it would seem 
that amateur equipment capable of 5MHz operation without modification 
can't be CE approved.
