Broadcast FM / AM transmissions usually feed this ...

7. Voltage-controlled oscillator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage-controlled_oscillator

   A voltage-controlled oscillator ( VCO) is an electronic oscillator whose oscillation frequency is controlled by a voltage input. The applied input voltage determines the instantaneous oscillation frequency. Consequently, a VCO can be used for frequency modulation (FM) or phase modulation (PM) by applying a modulating signal to the control input.
