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.

Just a thought
