Second-channel frequency
In heterodyne reception, a frequency, other than that to which the receiver is tuned, which is such that the difference between this frequency and that of a local oscillator in the receiver is a frequency lying within the pass band of an intermediate-frequency amplifier in the receiver, in which it produces an unwanted response.
