You will also need to bridge a capacitor to improve the output across the two bands.

Any chance of seeing the JPG again? It seems to have disappeared as a link.

Convert to FCC Frequencies (Mid Block)
Connect the TC9106 PLL chip directly on top of the TC9119 piggy back style but leave pins 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 free.
Cut track to pins 4 and 5 on TC9119.
Link TR17 collector to junction of D6 and R33.
Connect pin 5 of TC9106 to the bottom of your new bandswitch.
Connect pin 5 of TC9119 to the top of the bandswitch.
Connect the track previously disconnected from pin 5 to the bandswitch slider (middle pin).
Change C62 to 18pf - Try different values if too far off frequency.
Solder 33pf cap across C64.
Tune VCO if Necessary and output coils for operation on both bands.

According to the PLL data book the Uniden Pro 620 uses an SM5124A, and is not modifiable [as you would with the TC9106/SM5126B], Maurer does have a module listed for SM5124.
