Default NE612 beginner

I am very new in electronic circuits and I am using NE612 as a frequency mixer. In the datasheet a sample circuit for this purpose is shown. Nevertheless, it is for 45 MHz. There are some capacitors and inducers shown in the circuit diagram. However, I need to use some other frequencies as well. I was wondering if the values of capacitance and inductance which are shown in the datasheet should be changed for frequencies other than 45 MHz. I am not using it in radio applications, so I only need to have the IF produced in the output. I am really looking forward to hearing some help. If I have to change them, how should I measure them?
Thanks a lot for all helps
Best regards

I suggest you refer to the application notes for the device. This will probably be your best source of information.

Resonance is when X [sub] L = X [sub] C

The Smith Chart leaps to mind as well.

Thanks a lot Jimmie, I am exactly trying to learn what I have to do with. I suppose I should learn more about LC filters and oscillator stabilizers. Am I right?
Thanks again.

F = --------------
2*PI*(L*C)

Actually, it's the square root of (L*C) in the denominator of the above...
