Thank you for this information!  I was only going on what my roommate said,
and it's he who wants the clock.  It's not often that the correct way is
the easier way...

So, if I found a 1.002738MHz xtal, I would divide it by 1000000 to have
1Hz...so what do I use to divide by a million?  Six divide-by-tens?
