[time-nuts] What's the easiest way to divide by 10 for Thunderbolt reference output?

Mine are not handy, so I'm not sure it has 50% output duty, but the Ballantine 
6130A Time Mark Generator is a potential candidate. It's not much more than a 
chain of 7490 dividers fed from a 10MHz source, and has a (non-nut) ovenized 
oscilltor built in. Even has synchronized multipliers that go up to 500MHz. I 
couldn't resist buying a 2nd at Dayton this year, cost all of $5 from a dumpster 
diver late Sunday. A fair price is more in the $30 - $40 range, which is what I 
paid for my first one.

Sorry, should have said, ready built, got too many half finished jobs
on the go right now. FAR too many according to my wife....
