Default Transceiver mod

...
I have an HF transceiver which can be easily modified to work outside
the ham bands. I want to perform the mod so I can use the radio with
VHF/UHF transverters and cover the entire bands. Would this be legal?
I have discussed this with several fellow hams but have not really got
any kind of definitive answer yet.

This is the basic way many transceivers have worked for many years. The
basic signal generating part is almost never on the same frequency as the
desired output.

As mentioned by others assuming you are in the US anyway it does not mater
what you do to generate the output frequency as long as the final results
are in the ham band and meets the other requirements.
