Something like the attached Taiten VCTCXO @ 30.72 MHz + ADF4002 Phase
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.)

Alexander,
Can you provide a reference to where the datasheet calls out a max I/Q
sample rate of 14 Msps? The analog low pass filters support a max
bandwidth of 14 MHz (which leads to 28 MHz RF bandwidth assuming
zero-IF operation)...is this what you're referencing?
The datasheet is not very clear on this topic. I'm referring to the
following line at the Table 1:
Baseband Bandwidth 14MHz
Originally I read this line as "digital I/Q bus has limitation of
14Msps" and this is what confuses me.
Yes, this refers to the analog baseband filter bandwidth.
Ok, thanks for the clarification.
We run the A/D
converters in the LMS6002d at sample rates greater than 14 Msps all
the time, including 30.72 Msps.
Just to be sure - do you mean you feed RX_CLK and TX_CLK of LMS6002D
with 61.44MHz clock? It's divided by 2 internally, so if you feed them
with 30.72MHz clock you actually get only 15.36Msps out of LMS6002D.
Correct, when running the A/D at 30.72 Msps, the RX_CLK signal needs
to run at 61.44 MHz.
Great!
In case you know a good 61.44 MHz oscillator with a reasonable price -
I would appreciate a pointer.
