Adding FM to a General Electric AM CB


Is it possible to add FM to my old General Electric? If so where could I get the board from or is anyone on here up for the job? emoticon

Adding F.M to the General electric is straight forward really. Spectrun do a very good F.M board for just these type of radios, Just follow the instructions and you wont go wrong.

FM455 FREQUENCY MOD-DEMOD adds very good quality FM transmission and reception to AM only CB rigs. Receive side connects to the last IF amplifier before the AM detector. The transmit side connects directly to the microphone input and provides processed audio to the varicap diode in the PLL circuit. PCB size 44 x 39 x 16mm. PCB Kit £10.00, PCB Built £15.00.
