Actually, it was the later R390A that used a 200kHz crystal and divided 
by two.  The original (earlier) R390 used a 1MHz crystal and divided by 
10.  In both cases, the "division" was accomplished by injection locking 
an astable multivibrator running with a natural period of ~100kHz.

Best regards,
