Post Subject: Is it the 157kHz or 314kHz?Posted by Romy the Cat on: 6/6/2011

David, I guess I misread your comment. As I saw your following line:

“27kHz, 36kHz, 45kHz, 53kHz, 62kHz, 71kHz, 79kHz, 88kHz, 97kHz, 105kHz, 114kHz, 123kHz, 131kHz, 140kHz 149kHz, 157kHz.”

I was puzzled what the hell you guys are doing as 157kHz is too narrow bandwidth for a tuner to sound good. The narrowest window that includes ALL stereo information would be double maximum caring frequency plus double of deviation.  In FM stereo have 53K of maximum caring frequency that makes 106Kz and we have 75K is deviation, dibble of it 150K. So, 150K +106K will be 256K of absolute minimum IF bandwidth. Typically the best tuner have wider IF…  So I was wondering what you are doing with 157kHz…

Then I realized that I missed from your post the following:

“Please note that these bandwidths are for one side, so the full maximum bandwidth is actually 314kHz.”

If it is true then max 314kHz is fine maximum bandwidth. However, I never heard that anyone ever publish number just for ONE SIDE. So, sine no where the bandwidth of your IF is published and you pasted your IF number from somewhere then would it be possible that you mentioned the “note that these bandwidths are for one side” only in order to make me to shut up? I mean: what is the point for you have those numbers somewhere for one side only? Can you point out for me a public official location where the total IF bandwidth of 314kHz is mentioned?
