Otisoil,
For a radio to be used legally on CB (under part 95),
it has to be type accepted by the FCC. If it doesn't
have the type acceptance, or, if it's been modified after
type acceptance, it isn't legal.
The only services in which you can use a modified radio
is Part-15 and Part-97. These two still have technical
requirements the radio must meet, but you don't have
to go through the 'acceptance' procedure unless you
make them commercially.
Type acceptance is primarily for commercial manufacturors.
The definition of a commercial manufaturor isn't exactly
what you might think it is, though...
