There is nothing Illegal about it. I posses it and I can sell it to whom ever I choose to. Anyone who challenges that come and do something about it. That includes the US Government. I'm waiting on you you are victim of another cb myth, read the facts below ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Q. What are the limitations of legal amateur radio linear amplifiers? A. Power amplifiers intended for use at licensed amateur radio stations must comply with the provisions of Sections 97.315 and 97.317 of the F.C.C. rules. Among other things, they must be approved by the F.C.C. In addition, any amplifiers intended for use on any amateur frequencies below 144 MHz shall exhibit no amplification capability on frequencies between 26 and 28 MHz. Q. How do I know if an amplifier is legal or not? A. All legal amplifiers must be issued an F.C.C. grant of equipment certification. Every such approved amplifier must have a sticker indicating the name of the manufacturer and the F.C.C. Identification number (FCC ID). This FCC ID number can be verified by checking the F.C.C./OET Equipment Authorization database on the F.C.C.'s Web Page. If an amplifier does not have such an FCC ID, it is not a legal amplifier. The F.C.C. Laboratory can provide a list of manufacturers who have been granted equipment authorizations for their approved linear power amplifiers. The F.C.C. Laboratory can also provide (an incomplete) list of known illegal amplifiers. This list keeps growing as additional makes and models become known to us. Q. I have an F.C.C.-approved amateur radio linear amplifier. Is it OK for me to modify it to operate on the C.B. frequencies? A. No. Q. Can I sell my linear amplifier? A. Only if it is an F.C.C.-approved amplifier. The importation, manufacturing, marketing, use or possession of non-approved amplifiers is illegal. Q. If I can not sell it my illegal amplifier, what can I do with it? A. Destroy it. Q. I see linear amplifiers offered for sale on Internet sales sites. Is this legal? A. Only if they are F.C.C.-approved amplifiers. F.C.C.-approved amateur radio amplifiers which have not been altered in any manner so as to operate on the C.B. radio frequencies, may legally be sold to other amateur radio licensees. The sale of any type of non-approved C.B. amplifier within the United States, under any form of disguise, to anybody, is illegal. |
