I have a Airtronics MX3 in the 75Mhz frequency. Is it possible to convert it to uk spec. I noticed that this frequency is for Runway Marker Beacons and i happen to live less than a mile away from the local airport so i don't want to upset anyone.
Any help would be welcome..

I just bought the same Radio , From what I hear MX3 Transmitters are (Rumored) to be able to use either 75mhz or 27mhz, & would only require a Receiver change (can anyone Confirm/Deny this?), but I kindof doubt that. (check your Owners manual or e-mail Airtronics)
the main most widely known method is to send the Set to The mfr & have them change the transmitter over to 27mhz & swap the 75mhz receiver for a 27mhz.
But if you can get them to or not is another story...
Let me know how things work out

Quick note, I have e-mailled Airtronics asking what can be done, I will post the reply once I get it.[8D]
personaly, I think I would be in the clear as far as i can tell (nearest airport is about 40-50 miles away)
and I am moving back to the US hopefully early next year.

Hello,
The only thing you can do is exchange it from where you purchased it.
Thank you,
