No Reason not to, back in 1995 after my upgrade to General i often used my old 148 on ten meters.
It worked very well, i never got a negitive comment from anyone and was told many time`s it sounded very good.
It used to be a very common pratice to convert old SSB cb`s for ten.
Here in the US the Hobby has changed a bit, we see new guys comming into the hobby that want a FT 1000 or a new All mode/all Band Kenwooh or ICON ( Sorry for the typo`s real radios say Yaesu on them ) but many moons ago it really was about roll yer own.
One of the cooest things about Ham radio is the fact that you can do that.....
