Absolutely they are legal to sell, but you have to go through type acceptance under part 15, and then you need to make it so the user cannot modify them.
“ The rules require any manufacturer certifying a device under the new process to take steps to prevent “unauthorized” changes to the software on the device that might alter its radio frequency and power parameters in a way that takes it out of compliance with the regulations known as FCC Part 15 regulations.”
Test equipment is exempt because it is not licensed as an intentional emitter under part 15.
