Is that because the radio lacks some sort of certification or are
you assuming that the original poster lacks a business band license?

Radio transmitters used on business band must be FCC approved
("certificated") for that service. The ICOM in question is not.

The Phrase in question is "Type Accepted", and ALL Transmitters licensed
under Part 90, 80, 20, and a few others, MUST be Type Accepted by the
FCC, to be marketed, Imported, and sold, in the US. Any person may
modify any piece of equipment they choose, HOWEVER, said modification
MAY void the Type Acceptance for that piece of equipment, and therefor
make it a violation of the Licensing Conditions as specified on the
Station License granted by the FCC.
