You can make any mod you want to a radio..

It is only illegal when you transmit with it...
Unless there is a active Emergency and in that case you are allowed to use ANY frequency possibly needed to get help..

Of course most who mod equipment use those frequency's they are not licensed for regardless that there is no active emergency..

Getting licensed brings a lot more equipment you can use legally not just for active true emergency but also lessor problems as well as for just plain talking and fun..

Often in times of emergency's cel phones also lose ability to work and often (Not always...but usually) ham radio is a back up and reliable means of keeping in contact
