anyone know a simple 10khz jump feature mod for this PLL?
I have a brand new older model Midland CB 40 channel that I would like to do this to..I know all the other "band" mods, but do not wish to do them. A buddy 35 miles away has a birthday on the 20th of January. I offered him a AM/SSB radio, but he does not like the SSB mode. He is going blind and a simple switch to go from 27.185mhz to a very quiet 27.195 will be a tremendous blessing. I have done tons of searches and came up with only one that was worth trying. http://www.geocities.com/y40002000/plowboy2.html if someone here has tried this and it WORKS , let me know BEFORE I open this baby up. Email me at My goal before I get old is to get my Ham ticket, which will take all of month of studying or less If I cram. Been in electronics long time....my HR2510 takes me in the 10-11 meter bands from 26.000mhz to 29.000mhz AM, FM, CW, USB, LSB.. .. I am "W-F-L-Y" World-Wide Horsefly, 118, North Alabama 73's and Happy New Year to all, and to all a good night. |

Not saying that it would even work, the whole idea of stacks 5 capacitors as
suggested on the page just looks pretty shoddy. PLEASE NOTE: The following is known to work with the PLL02A that is in the 2-Crystal AM Only radios, and is not guaranteed to work in any of the other versions. I'd have to know what the Manufacturer and Model of the radio is before I could say for sure if it would work or not, or whether I'd be able to come up with a method to modify the radio to have... The easiest way to accomplish what you want is to make a -10Khz switch and switch DOWN from channel 20 to Channel 19A... This would be accomplished by cutting the trace to pin #15 of the PLL, and adding a SPDT switch across the trace. When the switch is in the normal position, the trace would effectively be bridged, or in normal operation. When switched the other way, it would pull pin #15 HIGH, effectively jumping 10Khz DOWN. Now HIGH indicates adding a voltage of 4.5 to 5.5 Volts. Just tap the voltage off of Pin #1 on the PLL. Enjoy!
