[time-nuts] Got 60HZ?

Hi

Yes indeed, use the 10 MHz as the clock to the PIC or any similar cheap CPU.
The external clock input pin does a fine job (for this purpose) of taking in
a sine wave.

I don't see how this is going to track the 10Mhz reference unless
maybe you use it to clock the PIC.  That would work if you had a PIC
that would run on 10Mhz
