mb8719 and mb8734 mods with 11.3258/11.1125 xtal
Hi all Bob here in the states.
Was hoping to see if there is a kit out there for channel mods to get 40 below 1 and 40 above 40.
Cobra/president/? other radios that use the 8719 and the 8734 + 11.3258/11.1125 xtals
26.955 to 26.815 and 27.415 to 27.855.
I have tried the expo kits with xtals and kinda not stable.
Was looking to do a pll mod to give the 2 extra bands with aligned 40 ch groups like a radio that has the band switch A/B/C/D/E/F/
i JUST NEED THE 2 EXTRA BANDS plenty of channels.
Any help much appreciated

You'll find a mod to give you the LOW and HI bands (plus Alphas and -5Khz) for the 8719 at : www.microchipz.net

Re: mb8719 and mb8734 mods with 11.3258/11.1125 xtal
Im looking for one that will work in US model radios just 40L 40M 40H.
so most of the 148gtl 2000gtl washingtons presidents all with the 11.3258 and 11.1125 xtals mb8719 and mb8735
I have a pll kit that will do 26.325 to 28.925 of course radio will not broadband to all of that unless you tune to the higher end or the lower end
I have it set to go 26.515 to 28.245 but channels not in correct slots.
It has a 5 way rotary sw which I only use a 3 way as not to choose the other bands.
Then 3 toggles added 1 for 10kc jump 1 toggle to get 26.955 to 26.815 and ch 45 to 59 and 1 toggle to get 41 42 43 and 44.
it works by removing the 8719 and add a socket and then plug in the channel module.
can be used with any radio 8719 and 8734 just need to change the xtal to the 11.3258 if you leave the 11.1125 total different channels.
So I was looking for something simpler.
thanks will check out the site

I have 2 x 148 GLTs and a 2000 GTL , all with 11.3258s . I have used the expansion module from the site I posted above with good results . The VCO on the 2000 had to be modded a bit to get the full 120 channel coverage . I didn't have to touch the VCOs on my 148 GTLs as I only use them for the MID and HI bands . You can also get them from Austria

Click on the "Download Instructions" for the 8719 and you'll see the bands and functions listed .

Re: mb8719 and mb8734 mods with 11.3258/11.1125 xtal
So I received 3 kits from funkservice.
I installed one and works good problem is the pins that plug into socket are not aligned on his board too good so when tried to install in a socket
already in the radio it was hard to do and i pushed too hard and pushed off 1 of the surface resistors. see picture I have emailed funk 2 times and no answer so I can buy a few to put one back on the board. Suckers are real small and it fell in the radio out the bottom as the bottom was off
Id like to get the kit working in the radio.
Would anyone know what the value might be here is picture

No idea what the value would be . I'm surprised that Gerhard hasn't replied to you , as he's usually pretty good . The pins on these modules are usually a bit larger than the holes on the pcb , so I usually use a safety pin to make the holes slightly wider before fitting .
