My brother recently purchased a Galaxy DX99V radio from a local pawn
shop for $100, and just looking for a CB radio to take over the road we
found this radio to be advertised as a 10m radio for ham operators
(which I am licensed, he is not), but it also does 11m for CB.

I'm still completely green with radios (been licensed for just 6 weeks
now), but it's my understanding that such a radio would be illegal. If
a device is type accepted for CB frequenies on 11m it would not legally
be able to transmit on 10m ham frequencies.

Fresh off the Press; your answer lies in the last sentence of the fourth
paragraph and all of the fifth paragraph on this page:
