Satellite receiving system and method for adjusting a satellite receiving system ( 100 ) including an input ( 113 ); a first oscillator ( 106 ) with theoretical frequency (F<SUB>OSC1</SUB>) and real frequency (F<SUB>OSC1</SUB>'), a first frequency mixer ( 105 ) delivering a signal at a first intermediate frequency (F<SUB>2</SUB>), a second oscillator ( 302 ) with frequency (F<SUB>OSC2</SUB>), a second frequency mixer ( 301 ) delivering a signal at a second intermediate frequency (F<SUB>OUT</SUB>), a microcontroller ( 202 ), which controls a real frequency (F<SUB>VCO</SUB>) of the second oscillator, and an output ( 110 ). An external signal ( 112 ) at a determined frequency (F<SUB>1</SUB>) is supplied to the input ( 113 ). Then a nominal value (F<SUB>OSC2</SUB>) of the frequency of the second oscillator is determined as a function of the input frequency (F<SUB>1</SUB>), the theoretical frequency (F<SUB>OSC1</SUB>) of the first oscillator and the second intermediate frequency (F<SUB>OUT</SUB>). Then, the frequency of the second oscillator is controlled, via the microcontroller, at the determined nominal value. An offset is detected between the theoretical frequency (F<SUB>OSC1</SUB>) and the real frequency (F<SUB>OSC1</SUB>') of the first oscillator, from an offset between the first intermediate frequency (F<SUB>2</SUB>) and the second intermediate frequency (F<SUB>OUT</SUB>) at the output ( 110 ). The offset is corrected by correcting the nominal frequency (F<SUB>OSC2</SUB>) of the second oscillator into a real frequency (F<SUB>VCO</SUB>) so as to cancel out the offset at the output.
