This is the most commonly used chip on the market today so I
will try to make this as Simple as possible! the following is
a Diagram of the MB8719 Chip Used in all the New radios!

Because of Pin 10, the chip downmixer can be referenced to
two different frequencies with the same 40 channel result!
In radios using the 11.11258 crystal, Pin 10 is Grounded
causing the Chip to go to full up-count. In this case lifting
Pin 10 from Ground will cause the radio to cover 120 channels
with the highest frequency being 27.445 MHz. The other
chassis that have pin 10 high, use a 11.3258 MHz. crystal for
reference. In these Chassis, by grounding pin 10 the Radio
goes up in frequency by a similar range. The truth table is
based on the 11.3258 MHz. crystal reference.
CLARIFIER:
Because of the various versions of the 8719 Chassis i will
Use the President Mckinely as a Example. this conversion is
for all 8719 Chassis. The following covers all President ,
Most Cobras , SBE, Stalker, Realistic and other radios with
a Uniden Chassis.
1. Cut out D-36.
2. Remove R-187. this applies voltage to the circuit in the
transmit and will cause tracking problems if not removed.
3. Leave the center wire from the Clarifier alone!
4. Follow the orange wire from the clarifier control and
remove it from where it connects to the radio. (this point
will vary with different radios.)
5. Connect this wire a (longer length may be added) to pin 3
of IC-5. (located bottom of board on left side with the radio
facing front.) This supplies constant 8 volts from the
Regulator.
6. Follow the red wire from the clarifier control to the
point where it is connected to the chassis.
7. Connect this wire to ground through a 47 ohm resistor
in series with the wire or through a 1N914 signal Diode with
cathode to ground. this is important because it isolates the
regulated supply from the ground. In Case of Regulator
failure the diode or resistor will act as a Fuse to protect
things. this gimmick can save you a lot of problems and grief
so use it!
8. Slide can be increased by lifting the Anode of the
Varactor diode and add a Series 5.6 - 8 uh choke to Ground.
if more slide is needed either purchase a Super varactor or
go to your local TV Shop and Scrap one from a Vhf Tuner!

TECH NOTE:
In some Washingtons and Robyns as well I have found pin 10
was wire-wrapped under the chip to ground. Suppliers of
Conversion kits tell you you have to replace the chip! This
is false! Carefully heat the pin and push the ground wire
off the pin. cut the wire as close as possible to the chip
and proceed with the Conversion! (Another first from HCS)!
1. replace the removed Crystal with a 11.3258 MHz. Crystal
NOTE:
if you use a Uniden Stock crystal (11.3258) which is cut to
a higher PF. load than the Special Conversion Crystals you
may have a Difficult time to recenter the Clarifier! Be Aware
2. Switch Method 1 will start up coverage from 27.605 and go
to 28.045
3. Switch method 2 will give normal operation in the center
postion 2 - 27.455 - 27-605 and in position 3 will give from
27.605 - 28.045. This switch is intended for amateur use when
converting the radio to 10 Meter operation.

MB8719 Coverage from Channel 45 - 99+ with one switch &
diode Protect.
10 METER CONVERSION:
Replace Crystal with 11.8391 MHz. Covers Phone band Above
29.5 MHz. Using a 11.660 crystal for 28.0 to above 29.0 MHz.
MB8719 Tuneup:
Connect a Freq. Counter to TP1
Put the Radio on Channel 20
In the USB mode adjust CT3 for 35.0075 MHz.
In radios with choke added to Clarifier set control at 3:00
clock position.
Switch to LSB mode and adjust L19 for a Freq. of 35.0025
Switch to AM Mode and adjust L20 for 35.0050 MHz.
Peak Transmitter by tuning L26, L27, L29, & L36
AM Power is adjusted for VR-6
SSB ALC is adjusted with VR-7
To Increase Modulation Cut the collector of TR-32
Touch up Recieve stages if converting to 10 Meters
SUPER TRICK:
If you Need More bandwidth connect a Varactor to the coil
side of the cut trace and the cathode of the VCO Chip side.
Retune the VCO coil for operation over the entire range!
Cut The trace from the VCO coil going to pin 6 of the VCO
And Do the conversion described Above.
