It appears most everyone is thinking about controlling/disabling the RF. Take
the focus off 21 ~ 30 MHz RF solutions for a moment.
What's to say the internal frequency detector couldn't manage the HV or Bias
supplies to disable amplification when detecting 26 ~ 28 MHz?

I couldn't agree more, Paul - but my point was precisely that it DOESN'T change
anything for manual amps - the only way to meet the requirement is to continue
to stop at 15 meters. I'm a little concerned, though, that the "NOT easily
modifiable" requirement might even preclude sale of existing manual amps,
unless their certification is grandfathered. After all, don't some of them
require just cutting a single wire or changing the plate choke?
