You need to include in the denominator all of the cases for which the questions on FGC were asked. In this survey g102 is missing if g100 is not Yes. Also, in this survey FGC was asked in a subsample, but you can select that subsample based on variable g100. Try the following:

if (not sysmis(g100)) fgc = 0.
if (g102 = 1) fgc = 1.

then weight the data as you have for other surveys, and you should match the estimate in the report.
