Tenna CB-24


EXPO 100 EXPANDER

MODEL S- OR S+

TENNA CB-24

Installation:

 

1.

Remove the covers from the unit and locate coil T6 close to the LC7131 PLL chip.

Unsolder the pins of T6, and remove it from the circuit board.

2.

Solder the expanders Green wire into the hole of T6 that connects to capacitor C35.

3.

Solder the expanders White wire to the hole across T6 that connects to capacitor C12, and resistor R37.

4.

Solder the small 100 pf capacitor (included in kit) across the outer terminals of the ceramic filter CF-1, located close to coil T3. Note: if a squeeling noise in the receive is present, try soldering a 22 pf capacitor in series with a 1k resistor across CF-1 instead of the 100 pf. (See Uniden PC-33)

5.

Solder the expanders Red wire to the switched +13.8VDC at the ON/OFF switch.

6.

Solder the expanded Black wire to circuit board ground.

 

 

Tuning:

Power the unit on and tune the channel selector to channel 10. Tune coil T3 while switching the expanders switch back an forth. Tune the coil for a compromise of best receive for both sides. Slightly tune the other coils T2, and T4, to enhance the results. Tune coils L11, and L12 for best transmit power.
