[Elecraft] KX3 4m-Band Bandlimits

According to the specification, it should transmit between 69.9 and 70.6MHz. 
What mode are you using?  If it's CW then there's a problem, if FM, maybe 
that's too wide a mode to stay within the limits?

In Germany I know a couple of Amateurs have licences for 69.950MHz, or a 
nearby frequency, to transmit and, of course, in the UK we already have 
70.000 to 70.500MHz.

On the bright side, if Elecraft are shipping the 4M modules mine might be on 
its way ;-)
