1. Given: final= 88MHz ,1. Given: final= 88MHz , 75kHz, final multiplier= x64, before first xlier is 75kHz, final multiplier= x64, before first xlier is carrier fcarrier fCC = 400k and f = 400k and fdd=14.47Hz=14.47Hz
2. then before multiplying f2. then before multiplying fCC =(88MHz/64) =1.375MHz, f =(88MHz/64) =1.375MHz, fdd = (75kHz/64) = (75kHz/64) =1.172kHz=1.172kHz
3. before first xlier is f3. before first xlier is fdd=14.47Hz=14.47Hzthen first xlier is (1.172k/14.47)=81then first xlier is (1.172k/14.47)=81
