Before we get really happy about this, isn't it the responsibility of
the operator to know exactly what he is licensed for? Other that the
requirement for the FCC (both domestic and export), that is all Flex
needs to be responsible for.
I would rather they focus their time on the RF deck and not on something
that protects people from what they should know already. Especially if
this is non trivial, I am sure that there are other things that need
fixing that are much more important.
BTW, it is amazing how many US amateurs in the CQWW contest operated
well outside their band plan. One 20M it was amazing all those that
would just click on a cluster spot and work a guy down below 14.150.
Personally over 20 tried to work me on Sunday.

It will be. The challenge is that there are region and country/entity specific
band plans and license classes for each that have to be considered. It isn't a

You know, it is possible to prevent out-of-band operation by
*thinking* and not setting the VFO to a frequency that will allow
energy to fall outside the band. I teach this to my 6th-grade students
who are upgrading to general-class and will be using the classroom K2
to make contacts. This technique works surprisingly well.
