[time-nuts] Does doubling a frequency alter the original ADEV of the frequency?

Would doubling the frequency of a 5 MHz oscillator to 10 MHz affect (or degrade) the natural ADEV of the 5 MHz oscillator?  If so, how does it affect the original ADEV?  Is there a preferred frequency doubler circuit which would do the least harm to the ADEV of the oscillator?  The signal can be a square wave and does not need to be a sine wave.  Thanks.
