Bonjour Pierre,

David put the finger on the right point, because my answer was not complete. Thank you!

You put two question in your mail. So here are both answers.

No, it is not possible to restrict the K2 transmitting frequence during the building 
process, neither by hardware nor by software.

And yes, it is possible to transmit with a K2 outside the ham radio bands all times.

But I don't know any reason why a ham radio operator should send outside the frequencies 
that are reserved for us. And to restrict the frequence area in a ham radio band makes 
also no sence to me, if you are a ham radio operator.
