Matt - not sure where the issue is here, at least for the KX2 and KX3. I have both radios and neither one complains about transmitting in the new 15 KHz band on 60 meters. I would think the K3/K3S/K4 rigs would also work there. Have you tried your KX2 there?

I am hopeful that the changes increase 60m use, and with just 15 kHz of non-channelized space and a 9.15 W ERP limit, it is just begging for QRP CW ops to make use of it.  “QRP CW Ops” are probably one of Elecraft's biggest customer (and fan) base, I am sure that I’m not alone in wanting to be able to get my KX2 playing around in the new, non-channelized space.  Any insight into early discussions would be greatly appreciates, however as I opened this message with - I know that this is really new news, so it would be fully understood if “we haven’t discussed it yet” was the honest answer.  I also know that Elecraft has quite a few products in the line, both currently sold and no-longer-sold-but-still-sort-of-supported, so it would be an interesting prioritization and work effort.
