Howdy!
Since I have been receiving a ’few’ items to work with
for a change - Vol. 22 came out sooner than expected!
Nothing like getting radio’s to play with - no holds barred!
Have put in this issue a request for a multitude of
Service Manuals/schematies; if these materialize will start
on Vol© 23; by the 15th of August.
Yes, we do need more information on ’Domestic-(FCC Type) C.B.’s’
These are listed also, along with scanners.
If Information submitted by you was not utilized, is usually
because of the following reasons: re-hash of prior Information;
incomplete-(mis/no labels); unable to decipher; previously copywrited
material from another source. Don’t get mad at me, but get tired of
people calling about errors. Put it on paper, print, and label
all schematics; I am not a mind reader. ND TELEPHONE INFORMATION
IS BEING ACCEPTED FOR PUBLICATION.
Look for up-coming articles on how to make a AM unit,
become an AM/SSB. Also how to make a CB transmit without DC
power source hooked up! - - - AHI, those screwdriver jocks’,,,
good for a laugh all the time. To answer some questions-below:
Seriously now, do you really think SCB needs a centerfold?
I do know that 99*99# of all ’distributors’ need to know how to
find and identify a PLL chip. (I taught a little 10 yr. old to
in 15 minutes.)• It doesn’t make sense to have people selling
who know absolutely nothing about electronics, except the light switch
on the wall.
Later, going fishin’

CAREFUL..................... OR YOU WILL END UP WITH A $2,000 PAPERWEIGHT.
1. Remove top and bottom covers. Remove seres which hold the front
of the radio to the cabinet. Lay the front down CAREFULLY!
2. Locate digital-B-unit (X54-184O-00), see large picture below..
3. Locate diode D130, is next to IC109 - carefully clip or remove,
4. Locate diode D135» is next to IC112 - carefully clip or remove.
5. Modification is now complete; unit will transmit across the
entire readout range. CAREFULLY reassemble unit, use extra
caution - don’t pinch any wires....

1. Remove the top and bottom covers, unplug the speaker,
2. Locate the AF-GEN-IF circuit board and remove the three screws.
Lift off and move to one side.
3« Locate the counter, PLL Board. Locate J13 (13 wire plug); pin
#6 will be a Yellow wire.
4. Follow the drawing below for cutting wire; add a switch in
series. (It will be necessary to splice wire, be sure to
insulate splice joints.)

pin #6 0
Yellow wire locate switch in convenient place
5. With switch open the TX/RX Fo’s are now 26.435-28.005M&.
BUT...., the readout/dlsplay will not follow.
Example: 27.995 will read 29.995.
6. If you want the readout to ’track*, will have to do the following
BUT...., will lose the 10 Meter portion of unit.
7. Locate the RBI IC terminal (#116-471) see pins #6, #8, and #10
from front to back. Follow drawing below, diodes are 1N4149.

Kenwood TS-120/TS-130 11 Meter Modification
With the following switch arrangement should be able to
have 10 and U Meters both. Also the ’Fo Mster/Readout• should
also track in both..... Want some feedback on this..••••••••••
Use same principals as modification on page 12 •
Theory: Up - regular 10 meter operation
Down - new 11 Meter operation, with meter tracking correctly.

20W-SSB), and an Antenna switch©

26.065-.28.305MHz. AM/FM/SSB/CW - "Deluxe Base"»
MCI45106-PT1.» This is NOT a Uniden chassis.......
However is a slick looking copy of the 148GTL-DX
and SuperStar 3&0FM. Almost identical layout and
parts; use caution working on board; as is fragile.
NOTE; On the first few chassis that made it out, problems
have cropped up with the voltage regulator shorting out
to chassis ground. (Check and replace insulator if needed).
Also PCB is being bowed by a bent chassis frame, which
in turn is cracking the board. (Check and shim if needed
with nylon spacers). Other than these two problems, nothing
else is critically wrong — have heard complaints about
alignment being out of ’spec
*? "Supposed to be fixed now."
This is not the ’High Power Excalibur’, but standard
RF power output. Clarifier is both TX/RX, and RX again?
Roger Beep, Dual Antenna Sw., SWR Meter, Select Call
Capability, Hi/Low RF Power Sw., Fo Cntr Jack (TX Only),
and recording jack for both TX/RX signal.
NO, lOKHz jump switch© Alignment proceedure/schematic

120-FM channels© Nice little unit overall, have been
told that extra spaces are left on PCB for additional

out there with these in it. Unit does have an SWR meter

(always did get sick when people talked about
the Cobra unit, they all think that Cobra built
it.......... NO WAY! ••.•Uhiden.)
Now for the word; rumor or truth; need feedback on this:

Cobra 2000GTL with the Uhiden PCB’s is being discontinued,
and a different board being substitued............ ?
A new version of the Jackson ? This time supposed to have Scrambler,

SWR meter, and Hi/Low Pwr switch.
Also a new High Powered Export in the Formac line... no specs as yet.
ARGO AM/FM base ?, and an AM/FM/SSB base ?, both are supposed to be

240 channels units©.....

"Picked up this unit in a trade, got a little excited when
I saw PIL on the case! As the 23 Ch® 02A chassis are getting
a little hard to find, especially in any reasonable condition.
Upon opening unit up found the UPD861 PLL chip, and started
wondering."
Conversion for channels 24 - 40....
A. Hardwire NB to permanent ON.
B. Clean off the switch, use drawing below for construction
of new frequency select switch.
b o
Og ------- Pin 6, PLL chip.
O ---------------- Pin 14, PLL chip
Mount so that contact is made in *0N* position.
C. With switch in ON position; Ch 1 is now ch 21. follows
through Ch 19 is now eh 39» Channel 40 is found half way
between Ch 1 and PA with NB switch in the OFF position©
Quickie* Tune-up TX: T14, T15, T16, TL7, and T18.

♦ Will have frequency conversion worked out for future volume,

as 26.385-26.625MHz is no problem. BUT from 26.625 up to 26.955MHz

Excalibur SSB
Things to check before applying power.
1. If adapter not in box with unit, will have to biy/or change plug.
2O Switch on back to 110V; check fuse; change if needed to 2 Amp fast blow.
3. Take top and bottom covers off unit, check for the following:
A© Make sure large heatsink in power supply has the transistor

sinked correctly with mica insulator! Note: some units will
have a 2SD1046 which the ’distributor* installed.
3. To the left of VR1 is D12. A yellow wire is soldered to one

end, make sure the insulation is in place.
C. ? ? Why the ’distributor* would take the time to change insulators

on the power supply transistor and leave those monster size ones on
Driver and Final is beyond me.... Change them!
D. Check bottom of PCB; if bowed at ary corner/s; shim with nylon

washers. Put the washers between PCB and chassis. Have found
most units are bowed down in the corner where PLL chip located.
WARNING-CAUTION: Be very careful when cutting etch and
soldering to PCB, as is not that strong. Support opposite side!
Superstar 3^00 (Low Band)
Things to check before applying power.
1. Check to see that D-77 is flush mounted on PCB, - next to mike

connector©
2© Remove mike connector from chassis as a whole unit, carefully

insulate the entire small PCB with electrical tape. When replacing
make sure that connector nut is tight.
3. Check jumper next to D~7$» make sure isn’t shorting.
4. Check TR45 for bad solder joint©
5© Change insulator on Driver and Final. This particular unit

had fiberglass instead of the white ones???
SPECIAL NOTE: Serial No’s on above examples - out of the box.

Things to check before applying power©
Serial no. 200341, out of the box:
Surprise! - NO, transmit, receive, the meter light worked?
Found following bad: TR41, 2SA473 - Open? Replaced with 2SA^0,
(2SA473, 10W/3A; 2SA490, 25W/3A). Direct ECG replacement is ECG153.
Other discrepancies noted were LARGE White insulators on the
driver and final, (same as the Excalibur SSB).
TP9 was bent over, checked on etch side and solder joint
broken (one side) - removed, straightened, replaced©
J21 pushed over near D73» C81 was cut out of the chassis;
piece of wire lead left hanging; removed it before it shorted out TR49©
REVIEW the SuperStar 3600/Excalibur SSB (pg. 24) for other items to
check. See board layout ’A, B, and C* as these and other parts are
in the circuit. No component numbers are listed on PCB.

Some of the TX Fo’s were off by 200-400Hz, adjusting CT’s (3-7)
would not bring frequency down. By adding 4-5pF to trimmer; hole is
there for part; could adjust dead-on. BUT; then couldn’t adjust up
in frequency to get the O’s. (I left this particular unit as is; so
whoever gets it can play with this; as shifts an entire band).

READ THE SPECS!
Recently had a request to set up a Bass boat with CB radio

and antenna. Antenna had to be a fold-down type as would be in
the way if not.
Having used Shakespeare Marine CB antennas before, gave them

a try again. This time I ordered the ’Little Giant*, Model 4050-B
3 foot.
BEWARE...Don’t use this antenna, as the SWR is BADI With an

antenna matcher could get SWR down to below 2.0 for only about a
15 channel range. Sent antenna back to distributor for credit.
I was out the shipping fees, both directions! Had I read the
Shakespeare spec sheet, would have seen their specs: Nominal VSWR
channel 1 and channel 40 - 3»0*l, channel 20 - 2.0:1 or less.
Should have been more, not less on SWR specs.•

PERSONAL COMMUNICATOR CONVERSION 49 MHZ
This conversion is useful to keep tabs on the kids as it enables you to monitor
the unlicensed "kiddie-talkie" frequencies which are: 49.830, 49.845, 49.860,
49.875, and 49.890 Mhz. Legitimate ham radio operations can also be done by
using crystals in the 13.100 Mhz to 13.200 Mhz range instead of the one specified
in the instructions which follow. Caution: do not operate in the 50-54 Mhz ham
6 meter band unless you have a Technician class license.
The following conversion was done to a Midland 13-830 which is found in SAMS
CB volume 120. A partial list of similar radios follows with the appropiate
SAMS volume number in case you don't have this particular volume handy.

KCB2320B CB153 13-955 CB135
Many other models of this Cybernet design having a PLL-02A with 3 crystals also
exist but were not produced in sufficient quantities to be in SAMS.
This conversion requires a frequency counter, wattmeter, signal generator and
an oscilloscope having a usable response to 50 Mhz (rating flat to 35 or 40Mhz.)
The principle of this conversion is to select the sum of the oscillators instead
of the difference frequency the unit was designed to operate on.
Crystal change: remove X101 (11.8066) and replace with 12.255 Mhz. (any crystal
between 12.215 and 12.290 should be okay). Tune T101 (VCO) downward so that
DC voltage of 1.5V appears when chan selector is on channel 1 on TP-8. DC
voltage should be around 3.5V on TP-8 when chan selector is on ch 23. Next tune
Till for strongest 38Mhz sinewave at TP-3 using oscilloscope as indicator.
Receiver conversion: remove C154 and change to 5pf. Remove T105 from circuit
board and remove its internal capicitor and reinstall T105. You should now be
able to put a 49 Mhz band signal into the ant jack and hear it. Peak T104 and
T105 for strongest S-meter indication. Do not tamper with the IF cans as you
don't want to throw them off frequency-their alignment should be the same as
they had when the unit was a CB! Sensitivity will not be real good at this time
as other parts in the antenna tuning circuit for the transmitter which have not
yet been retuned also affect the receivers sensitivity.
Transmitter conversion: remove C124 and replace with 33pf. Remove L103 so that
you can remove its internal capicitor and reinstall L103 to the circuit board.
Next remove L104 so its internal capicitor can be discarded. When L104 is sol
dered back in place add 15pf across the same pins the internal cap was tied to.
Coil T102 also needs its internal capicitor removed and to have 15pf soldered
to the same pins that the internal cap had been tied to. Change C141 to 39pf.
Change C143 to 22pf. Note-T103 does not have an internal capicitor to remove
even though one is shown in the SAMS. Remove C146 and do not replace. Change
C149 to 68pf. Remove R202 as it is unnecessary. Remove L106 to alter it by cut
ting its bottom plastic to remove two turns. L106 will have 2^ turns left when
it is reinstalled. Remove C153-do not replace. L109 needs to be cut down to 3^
turns-these come off the top of the winding the easiest. Change C151 to 220pf.
Change C152 to 150pf. Change R132 to a 22pf capicitor. Cut down L110 at the top
to 2^ turns. Add a hole at circuit trace point 21 for a 50pf capicitor to ground.
Wind a 3 turn coil identical in size to L116 and use it in place of the jumper
wire from test point 5B to the antenna connector. Change Cl (on the S0239) to
27 pf. Use the oscilloscope to peak each xmtr coil (mic keyed) from L103 thru
L110 making sure that the 49 Mhz signal is being peaked!
52
Best performance of the transmitter is obtained if L106 is turned downward a
little from the maximum wattage position-set it at not more than 5.5 watts.
Most of the coils will tune up somewhere near the original positions except for
T105 which will have its best peak about 2 turns above the coil form top. Now
when you peak T105 and T104 for strongest S-meter received signal from the sig
nal generator you will find the sensitivity to be better.
Now you can set the overall frequency to either 0 or 5 Khz on the end digit of
your frequency counter depending which channel you need to match up to in your
"kiddie-talkie". (Some kiddie-talkies have the actual frequency on the crystal
and others will be labeled at one-third the operating frequency-example:16.610
on the crystal is for 49.830 Mhz.) Tune C119 to set the desired frequency. It
probably will be necessary to change C118 to another value-try capicitors in
the range of 22 pf to 39 pf until you can tune C119 to the desired frequency.
To improve the squelch senstivity you can change R181 to 33K. You are now ready
to change the unit from AM to FM. Remove D105 and put a jumper wire from the foil
that the cathode (banded end) of D105 formerly was tied to to connect to +12V.
A handy point for the +12V is test point 9. Remove C177-the audio coupling cap-
ici tor from the AM detector to the volume control. Put a jumper wire from circuit
trace point 46 to the audio output of the FM KIT circuit board. Install another
jumper wire from the IF Input of the FM KIT board to the base of Q119. (Do not
remove any connections around Q119). Audio for making the FM KIT modulate the
xmit frequency can be obtained at the unused terminal of the PA jack. Put your
jumper lead from the PA jack to the Deviation Input of the FM KIT. The FM KITs
Deviation Output goes to test point 8 of the former CB rig. Power for the FM KIT
can be picked up at test point 9 for the +12V. The ground foil of the FM KIT is
to be tied to negative circuit board ground of the rig. For best results adjust
the 20K trimpot of the FM KIT for 5Khz deviation if you have a way of measuring
it. (It is factory set at 5Khz in the test rig so it should be okay if you don't
have a deviation meter). The discriminator coil of the FM KIT can be tuned for
clearest sound of a received signal if you don't have a FM signal generator or
for maximum noise in the absense of a signal (squelch open). Adjustment of the
discriminator coil should be within % turn of the factory setting on the FM KIT.
FM conversion increases RF power output somewhat and improves receiver sensiti
vity considerably.

To mount FM KIT remove chassis mounting screw between RV103 and IC102, drill out
hole to 1/8" or 3/16" and use 1" long bolt with 3 nuts as a standoff mount. The FM
KIT should be mounted parts side up so DP and disc are accessable for adjustment.

COPYRIGHTED PRICE $20.00 U.S. FUNDS

SECRET CB WISHES TO gratefully acknowledge the following people

FOR THEIR HELP AND CONTRIBUTIONS TOWARD GETTING VOLUME 22 IN PRINT.

Their encouragement and contribution of material has been invaluable.

DORIS says "THANKS" and a free

WE HAVE SUCCEEDED IN MAKING "SECRET CB" VOLUME 22

WE WISH TO THANK ALL OF OUR READERS FAR AND NEAR,

CORRECTIONS IN THIS VOLUME ON PAGE 6:

VOL. 15, PAGE 48 - ROYCE 1-639, PACE 8093 (CCI-3001)

Since I have been receiving a ’few’ items to work with

for a change - Vol. 22 came out sooner than expected!

Nothing like getting radio’s to play with - no holds barred!

Have put in this issue a request for a multitude of

Service Manuals/schematies; if these materialize will start

on Vol© 23; by the 15th of August.

Yes, we do need more information on ’Domestic-(FCC Type) C.B.’s’

These are listed also, along with scanners.

If Information submitted by you was not utilized, is usually

because of the following reasons: re-hash of prior Information;

incomplete-(mis/no labels); unable to decipher; previously copywrited

people calling about errors. Put it on paper, print, and label

all schematics; I am not a mind reader. ND TELEPHONE INFORMATION

IS BEING ACCEPTED FOR PUBLICATION.

Look for up-coming articles on how to make a AM unit,

become an AM/SSB. Also how to make a CB transmit without DC

power source hooked up! - - - AHI, those screwdriver jocks’,,,

good for a laugh all the time. To answer some questions-below:

Seriously now, do you really think SCB needs a centerfold?

I do know that 99*99# of all ’distributors’ need to know how to

find and identify a PLL chip. (I taught a little 10 yr. old to

in 15 minutes.)• It doesn’t make sense to have people selling

Later, going fishin’
