Remember it is Illegal to transmit out of band. This Modification is
for Informational purposes ONLY. Doing such modifications on your
radio may void any warranty and damage your equiptment.
Note that for the vast majority of cases, using your amateur radio to
transmit on non-ham and/or non-MARS frequencies is illegal, even if you
are properly licensed and/or authorized to operate in one or more
non-ham bands.
It doesn't matter if you're a deputy sheriff, a firefighter, or an FBI
agent. The FCC rules are clear on this. Non type-accepted equipment
(i.e. consumer grade amateur gear) may not be used on these
frequencies. To be legal, you must get a type accepted radio (like a
Motorola) and modify it to operate on Ham Frequencies - not the other
way around.
