USRP2 and N210 were designed to take a 10MHz reference clock, the type
commonly generated by reference oscillators and GPSDOs. It is possible to
use a different frequency which is divisible into 100MHz, but you will have
to modify uhd/host/lib/usrp/usrp2/clock_ctrl.cpp to cope with a different
reference frequency. There is no easy path to getting a 64MHz external
reference into the USRP2/N210.
