Why not just run a DDS chip to generate any freq. you need for the
multiplier.
You can program it with a PIC chip. For the DDS reference you can use any
high
quality TCXO. Put a knob on the box to select the reference freq. needed. 
An Analog Devices AD9852 comes to mind...Or just order one of their eval
board kits
and stack on whatever you might need.

Update:

This thing is still wide open for suggestions, and please post them here, to
spawn more contributions. We should be able to come up with basic
specifications and a block diagram during the next meeting.

We're looking at 96 MHz for generating multiples for 2304 and above and a
simple divide by 2 (square wave followed with a high pass filter) for 1296
and down.  We may also find a slick way to hit 222 and 902 with reasonable
accuracy. Especially at these lower frequencies. This last item is up for
grabs. It's time for a suggestion on how to solve this problem.

Value added; Steve is correct. Everyone will walk away with more than just a
piece of very useful equipment. Also, the $200 for a high performance ref is
probably more realistic than my $30 estimate. Too soon to know just yet but
some serious numbers will be presented before too long.
