I think you know that using the same radio on both ham and CB is a 'no-no'. So, make up your own mind about that.
If you want a ham radio, get a ham radio. Most ham radios made in the last 20 years can be 'opened up' for use on other than ham bands. NOT that anyone would ever do that of course. That $400 would get you a very nice used ham radio. Nothing wrong with used, just take the usual care that you would in buying anything used. There are just way too many other things that can be done with a General class license than you'll ever do with a CB radio. Don't limit your self.
