If it were easy, it would have already been done. An Icom radio isn't an SDR.

hambands? Op-mode display.
For new item its very easy:
Do deliver the radio with an cd containing the country-specific eeprom
files. Installation writes to eeprom - thats it.
Is it so if I sell my used EG specified Icom rig to asia or US Icom is
responsable for my doing or that I am responable for what US amateur is
doing with this?
Can´t believe this.

There have been discussions between the developers regarding better handling of TX ranges
that are IARU defined and country or entity specific for the next generation of FlexRadio
SDR software called DI. The challenge is that above a certain power level, TX must be
restricted in firmware as per FCC regulations and how you "localize" a radio
that can be sold second-hand and shipped to a different country after it has been
localized, which could be an FCC violation (since the radio is manufactured in the US,
FlexRadio has to abide by FCC regulations).
This is only partly true, actually. No American company would be able to sell
to foreign countries if that were true. It is important where you *operate* the
radio - this determines which frequency range may be used.
Production and logistics-wise this requires to have region-specific model
variants that have specific firmware in them. Not easy, yes, but doable. Others
do it, too!
