In a dual-carrier, double-conversion Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) receiver a frequency synthesizer generates a first local oscillator signal for the first down-conversions stage of the receiver. A frequency divider is used to derive a second local oscillator signal from the first local oscillator signal, thus eliminating the need for a separate frequency synthesizer for the second down-conversion stage. A controller determines the frequency of the first local oscillator signal and a divisor M to align subcarrier grids for said first and second baseband signals with DC.
