Hello Samuel,

Well, I just got done designing and building the very same thing.  If I 
recall correctly it is the same as the HC4046 which is 4 MHz.  The 9046 
VCO will only go up to 20 MHz absolute maximum.  So you will need an 
external oscillator and dividers.

From the datasheet (www.nxp.com/documents/data_sheet/74HCT9046A.pdf) it is not clear to me what the maximum operating frequency for this phase detector is--from the enable and disable times (page 20 and figure 19) I presume 24.576 MHz is too much.
