[Elecraft] [K3] TX blocked

[Doug Turnbull]

We should remember that K3 sells globally and a transmitter which could work
outside the amateur bands might cause problems in some countries.   It is my
understanding that even as things stand Thailand will not allow the use of
the K3 by their amateurs.   Lets not forget that the FCC limits the receive
frequency range for some scanners and HTs so as to keep them off certain
critical frequencies including wireless phones.

Mean while the K3 is a wonderful radio.

Ahoj,

It's not possible to unblock TX outside the ham bands by h/w mod.
In my oppinion there is s/w lock in the standard firmware of the K3.
I can recommend to contact Elecraft support but I am not sure if the 
unblocking K3 is in harmony with Elecraft policy.
