There are a number of ways to multiply-up the 10 MHz, but what about
just changing things around to make the 20 MHz VCTXO phase-locked to
the 10 MHz OCXO, and then discipline the 10 MHz. There will be phase
noise issues, whether doubling one thing, or dividing the other by
two, but overall, I think it's easier to divide or subtract with some
type of mixing process, and then drive the VCTCXO from the result,
forming a PLL. The overall process should be OK as long as the uP
gets the right answer on average, over the necessary time frame.
