Actually, you're quite mistaken. FCC rules clearly state that
external amplifiers are illegal, as are modifications made to the
transmitter of any type-accepted equipment. This effectively
determines any amplification of any CB equipment to be illegal. It
would be illegal, for example, for me to connect my vintage SONY
ICB-1000W portable 1-watt radios to a 3-watt amplifier (if such a
ridiculous piece of equipment actually existed) because I would be
using external amplification, which the FCC has ruled illegal.
