This topic periodically surfaces in the hobby, who was subject to the disabling, how did the authorities notify repair shops, how could you stop someone from reconnecting the shortwave, it is subject to much discussion. I have had people tell me they knew techs who did this but they have not offered me details. Has anyone ever seen govt documentation requiring this work? All pretty mysterious....
