Correct!  Now all you need to do is to pass the reconstructed
analogue output through a 1 MHz +/- 10 Hz bandpass filter
(with infinitely fast roll-off), and you will have a 10 Hz
signal centred on 1 MHz.  The amplitude might be a bit low, 
but it will be there.  Try reading about it -- it _does_ work.
