My question is, does this mean that it is unlawful to broadcast in 121.5 by the ELT. If so, are all the new 406 elts also now illegal since they all from what I see broadcast on both 406 and 121.5? I could not find any that only use 406.

As a ham operator, I can use ANY radio or other means necessary to protect life, limb or property in an EMERGENCY and that right should also be with every citizen.... FCC Regulations, Part 97 covers us hams: * 97.403 Safety of life and protection of property.- No provision of these rules prevents the use by an amateur station of any means of radio communication at its disposal to provide essential communication needs in connection with the immediate safety of human life and immediate protection of property when normal communication systems are not available.

In other words, if I lay an 0-320 flywheel on top of one for an 0-360 will the perimeter bolt holes all line up? Need to know if my Landoll steel ring for 0-360 will bolt onto 0-320 flywheel. Thanks for the help.
