CB's

[Dick Renaud]

You got it. And to legally possess a modified ham radio you must have a technician class license and be also licensed member of a MARS group (Military Affiliated Radio Service) anone can join a MARS group (ARMY, Navy or Air Force)if they are licensed Hams. The only time you could legally operate such a modified radio on CB, GMRS, FRS or MURS would be in an emergency. As a side note, if you modify the radio without contacting the manufacturer to get the mod instructions and giving them your MARS license info the warranty is voided.
I am a Licensed Ham and I am joining a MARS group so I can legally possess a modified radio (ICOM-7000) so I have the broad capability in an emergency.
