Yes I've seen older amateur transceivers where the "11 metre" [i.e. CB!] bandswitch position has been relatively easy to swap a crystal and tweak down to the WARC 12M band, and at least one where it wasn't that hard to get the officially receive-only 10MHz "WWV" position working for TX/RX on the 10.1MHz WARC band. . .
