[Elecraft] K3: Mods for wide band transmiting?

[juergen]

Hi Jeff

A weird policy really since the K3 is neither type accepted for MARS, NTIA, aeronautical or the maritime service. 

Its double standards saying on the one hand that its ok to use the K3 on one particular HF service  even though its it illegal,  then go onto say that it wont be allowed on the CB service. 

To me it does not matter since I use a TS480HX and its IMD performance at 100 watts  meets spectral purity standards for all HF services at 100 watts of output. The TS480HX is good radio at 100 watts of output. I use my 480HX in both my sailing and flying hobbies and it works great.

At least if you wanted to  stand on the high moral ground, out of band transmission on any non amateur band on the K3 should not be allowed. You at least would have some credibility on the issue.
