A method for reducing adjacent channel interference begins by determining
a desired channel of a radio frequency (RF) signal. The method continues
by determining a plurality of potential local oscillations for the
desired channel. The method continues by determining a proximal power
level of an image frequency of each of the plurality of potential local
oscillations to produce a plurality of proximal power levels. The method
continues by selecting one of the plurality of potential local
oscillations for down converting the desired channel based on the
plurality of proximal power levels.
