The external synchronisation module was optional. It plugs into the back and contains a small PLL with a 74HC4046 that locks the internal 20MHz TCXO to an external 10MHz reference.

You could copy the original circuit and make your own module or double the frequency of your reference and use that instead of the internal TCXO.
