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?

All you would have to do to defeat such a microprocessor system
would be to lower the reference frequency going into the frequency
counter, so that the system would counted a 27 MHz signal as being
a 28 MHz signal.

I supposed you could package the microprocessor and the clock
crystal in a potted assembly to prevent that sort of tampering. The
whole thing becomes an arms race.
