I finally got my boards and xtals from China after 2 months.

I put a kit together these are for all the upd pll858 AM cb radios.

I installed 1 in a cobra 29xlr kit works great 40 up or 40 down.

Problem is these AM radios with the 858 do not tune well for power.

Is there any tricks to broadband the 858 AM radio to cover the channels with decent power.

I set up a low kit so 40 channels below 1 and from channel 40 down to 26.515 kinda hard to get decent 4 watts from 40 to 26.515.

any help appreciated.
