Hi Pete:

Maybe you can shed some light on the common xtal frequencies table where
there's no explanation given?

An answer is not it's an "even" frequency or "it's an even binary
frequency. That's true for most of these and the factors are part of the
table above.
The question is why do they exist?
such as:

12.288

AES/EBU and S/P-DIF baud-rate for 96 kHz sampling-rate

128 x 96 kHz = 12,288 MHz

Also in wide use for audio-boards.

6,144 MHZ
24,576 MHz

is related multiples for 48 kHz and 192 kHz.

19.44

SDH/SONET STM-1 byte-rate

270*9*8 kHz = 19,44 MHz

51,84 MHz
155,52 MHz
311,04 MHz
622,08 MHz

are related multiples that occurs regularly

Cheers,
Magnus
