The Mars mod is just a program that Aptos will supply that opens up  
the frequency - there isn't a specific version of the firmware as far  
as I know.
I haven't used it since I'm not planning on transmitting outside UK  
band - but then we don't have the requirements of a country that could  
swallow England many times over! And we don't have the environment  
with the same risks. :-)

I believe the reason it is not 'just opened up'  is that certain  
countries would refuse an import license if it was not limited.

I think Elecraft are having a hard time predicting when a certain  
feature will be available for a number of reasons. One being the  
amazing take-up of the K3. And another being the amazing response to  
end user requests by Wayne. I'm happy to wait and see it all emerge, I  
can't keep up with what comes out now!
