Ham equipment is not type approved (or whatever it's called nowadays)
so it is not legal for use in anything but ham use. Move it out of

A cb modified to transmit in the 10 meter ham band is legal as long as you're a
liscened ham and as long as the cb meets all emission requirements for the 10
meter ham band after you modify it. that is, as long as it meets all legal
standards.
A ham can modify anything or build anything for use in the ham bands, so
long as it meets all technical regs.
It is illegal to modify ham equipment to use in another service -- or,
more accuately, it is illegal to use it in another service (likley
merely modifying it is not illegal).
