Usually between 136mhz and 174mhz, with only software-based restrictions that are easily worked around. This applies for other bands as well (e.g. 70cm).
The official HAM frequency designation is between 144mhz and 148mhz. So why are transceivers, even the monobanders, able to work on a much wider range?

The transceiver ICs they usually use are designed for commercial radios and that is the frequency range that they typically cover. The ability to monitor other services is a useful feature.
