Hi

A low phase noise VCXO is going to be up in the vicinity of $20. An MCU that will do the 
loading stuff is in the << $1 range. BOM wise, the MCU is round off error. Code wise, the
firmware is “high school project” level stuff.

The goal here is to provide a good source for the 125Mhz, for not a lot of board space and not a lot of BOM cost.
