Hum, good idea for the very first try. We should try this out this week.
But I still want a normal TCXO/OCXO replacement for UmTRX to make it
easier to rework more UmTRX boards.

Hi Robin,
Do you mean to use ADF4002 to double the frequency?
Right now I want a simple solution - just replace the TCXO on UmTRX
from 26MHz to 61.44MHz and see how it works. Doubling the frequency
would require PCB rework and is possible for the next generation of
UmTRX only.

Something like the attached Taiten VCTCXO @ 30.72

Detector/PLL synthesizer might work. I have no idea how much the
oscillator
costs. (The Pletronics oscillator on the UmTRX and the GAPfiller GSM900
isn't available at this frequency.)

Ok, thanks for the clarification.

Great!
In case you know a good 61.44 MHz oscillator with a reasonable price -
I would appreciate a pointer.
