That is because it is a 10 meter Ham Band Transceiver and you need a Amateur radio license to transmit with it.
Amateur radio is very exciting. Why not get your license?
Check with www.arrl.org for more information about Amateur radio and how to get licensed. It is not very hard to do and you DO NOT need to learn morse code anymore to get a license.
When the band is open, listen to 28.300 through 28.500 USB.

You would have to replace several components on the board(requires alot of soldering and the parts needed are a little hard to come by) in order to change the output frequency ranges. It is alot of work to do this and is probably not worth all the work, Best advice I can give you is to replace it with an AM one and sell it.
Hope this helps

I hope this helps you!

The mixer crystal is unstable. It may need replacing. Some times you can reset them. Take a soldering iron and heat up the mixer crystal up for about 5-7 seconds. See if this stabilizes it. If the radio still drifts,then you need to replace the mixer crystal.
SOURCE: In Thailand Cb radio users must use freq range
Thailand actually has three "CB" bands, the first is the same as the U.S. / CEPT (EU "European Community) band 26.965 - 27.405 MHz, the second is a 78MHz VHF mid CB band (I think its either 40 or 80 channels with FM mode) and then the 245.0000 - 245.9875 MHz VHF 80 channel band - apparently the law also stipulates that the 78MHz CBs must be yellow colored and the 245MHz CBs must be red colored.
But yeah, 245MHz Thailand VHF CBs are very illegal in the United States.
