That document (DA 18-980) talks about "importing two-way VHF/UHF radios... used primarily for short-distance, two-way voice communications."

In other words: cheap walkie-talkies that don't comply with FCC regulations.

Such radios typically max out at 5w.

The LimeSDR claims 10dBm - which I believe means about 10milliwatts.

In other words, that FCC memo is concerned with radios being sold that are something like five hundred times as powerful as a LimeSDR. And therefore much more likely to interfere with other transmissions.

I thought it was more along the lines of going after Baofengs, not CB radios, hence the calling out of VHF/UHF radios specifically.
