A search of the FCC's website shows no such regulation (from 97.1 thru
97.527 only). The regulation that pertains to permissible transmitter power
in the Amateur Radio service is 97.313. With certain exceptions, the
maximum is 1.5kW output.

Also specifically, rules in the Citizens Radio service prohibits the
addition of external amplifiers (95.411) and prohibits CB transmitters from
being modified to produce more than 4W on AM or 12 PEP on SSB (95.607).

R1D, H3E, J3E or R3E. Each Amateur Radio transmitter which transmits
