I originally posted this.   I want to thank all that replied both on and off the 
reflector

Confession time, I completely missed the App note on this.  It will not be on my 
"need" list
but surely a "want" and will be done.

My K3 has the external reference option with a GPSDO. It was not a "need"  
either but
another "want" and an interesting project.    Using it as a signal source (power 
at minimum)
at least now I have "use" for that effort.

Once agn TNX!
