Though it's not very common these days, in the old days of radio most
receivers had a 455 KHz first IF frequency. For the 27.155 channel
that would require a 27.610 local oscillator frequency. Can you see
where I am going with this? Subtract 28.066 - 27.610.
Now of course, the question I'd have to ask for you would be whether
your transmitter uses a mixing scheme that could generate a signal on
27.156 or whether his receiver has a 27.610 LO? This translates to
a question of whether your transmitter is sufficiently old enough to
use
a 455 KHz IF. Transmitters haven't done this for a very long time,
because of the difficulty of filtering the potential spurious 27.156
signal sufficiently to satisfy regulators. On the other hand, cheap
CB
radios that use crystal oscillators and multipliers to generate the AM
transmitter signal but cheap receivers with poor image rejection can
get regulatory acceptance.
