The whole world has CB'ers to contend with. The difference is that not 
all of the world's regulatory agencies choose a policy that penalizes 
law abiding radio amateurs in an attempt to deal with a problem caused 
by CB'ers who are ignoring the law anyway.

The ban on 10 meter capability of amplifiers was no doubt one of the 
reasons that Ten-Tec discontinued the 405 amplifier. It was also an 
impediment to Elecraft's 100 watt upgrade to the K2.

One could make comparisons with gun registration laws, wherein law 
abiding citizens are burdened with regulations that cannot stop outlaws 
from breaking the law, but I digress.

The ban on 10 meter capabilities in commercially available amplifiers 
has been changed lately, has it not? What are the details now?
