Hi Lee,
This is from the FAQ page. I don't think you will have
anything to worry about.
Will the K3 operate on MARS frequencies?
The K3 may be operated outside the Amateur bands, but this
capability is prevented by firmware. We have not yet
worked out the mechanism, but we fully intend to support
such operation, along with the Alaska Emergency frequency
at 5.175 MHz.
General coverage receive filters can be added to the main
receiver and/or the subreceiver. This is the KBP3 option.
The rig automatically selects the narrow ham-band filters
when you're in the ham bands, and the wider filters when
you're in-between ham bands. This option has no effect on
ham-band performance and is extremely easy to install.
Thanks and 73

Without this capability, I won't/can't consider owning
a K-3. I am the
Air Force Region 4 MARS Director and none of the 250
members in my region
could use Elecraft without this capability.
