Good day Jeff A simple means and cost effective is perhaps look at a standard off the shelf guitar pedal such as the Boss digital delay-could even clock down your 10 Mhz ref for the timing if required.
Just a thought of not reinventing the wheel-most of the good delays use the "MN " delay chip. Something I have thought of in cases where telco microwave links are or a E1/T1 link is to have clock extraction off that link.All of the telco links in my country are clocked off Sat / GPS anyway. Commercial simulcasts are usually routed via microwave or other E1/T1 circuits that one could clock off. Our GSM sites all clock off the incomming E1 link.
