If easy means a temporary lashup, takes but one piece of gear. The Ballantine 6130A time mark generator takes in 10 MHz, produces from it a synchronous 1Hz to 500MHz selectable in 1-2-5 steps. I've not tested mine for phase noise, probably not the best performer... but for $35 not a big concern, given my needs. Shameless plug: I'll have another one for sale at the Dayton Hamvention, flea market space 1901. There will be other Time Nuts in residence at 1901 as well.
