Best source for legit MB8719 PLL?

[Onelasttime]

So they are obsolete but I would like to have a few on hand for the future. I am looking for the actual ones not the RCI version.


Ebay has them a dime a dozen but I am hesitant for obvious reasons. Am I am worrying about nothing with reguards to this PLL and fakes? Is there a chance the fakes are still a good part and functions fine? What are the odd's that they are fake?

I tried Mouser, Digi-Key, RF Parts, Barkett Electronics all out of stock.


Thanks

5 years ago I last bought from an ebay seller who used the same picture in this current listing. That seller doesn't seem to be around anymore. Is this seller the same? I don't know but he is using a picture that the other seller used for 10 years.

Thanks guys! I ordered 3 for now will prob. order more latter. I think I have at least 4 CB's that use that PLL and so 3 should be suffcient. I think I have one some place.

You can use an mc14506 pll with adapter board and works well also for extra channels more than the mb8719 will give.

I have seen guys with too much time on their hands or a real interest break out a pll on some bread board to shift pins and such to do home brew channel expansion. If I could buy one pre-made I might consider it but I am not making my own. That juice is not worth the squeeze today.

Now that you can AnyTone all mode and their clones for under $250 and cover 10, 11, 12 meters often under $200 if you shop around and get a good sale!

Yeah, some folks just like their old Harleys, oil leaks and all.
