[Elecraft] Band edge markers

[Gary VK4FD]

I believe we have enough 'features' on all radios manufactured today and we have legal obligations to stay within the bands pertaining to the various licences etc.

If you do the MARS mod...where do you want the band edges to be?....seems like your outside the 'normal' band usage so the accepted band edges would be of limited benefit?

I would rather see engineering and code development put into hardware and FW that improves the specification of the product rather than eye candy....YMMV

  Yes I think band edge markers (tones) on the K3 are a good idea. Why not
  have them as an audible reinforcement that you've crossed the band edge?
  Those who don't want them should be able to turn them off. Their absence was
  one of the first things I noticed since I was used to them being there on my
  ICOM rig.

  Anyone else think having band edge markers for the K3 (tone) and for the P3
  (visible marker line) a good idea?
