It’s probably well worth looking into exactly what you are after in terms of phase noise, 
spurs, and stability *before* deciding on a solution. In some cases things like DDS spurs
are a non-issue. In other cases phase noise at certain offsets is a really big deal, but at
other offsets … it’s a non-issue.
