I would like to get away without buying the tuner component.  I really
want to do it "from scratch", but I lack the knowledge to know how to do
so or even where to look to find out what I need to know to learn how to
do so.

I suppose it probably isn't something I can do, anyway.  I really want
to have the tuner device in a small housing like a USB flash
drive/stick.  My thoughts would be to build two of them; one for my
server, and one that I could keep with me to use to sync computers to
the correct time.  I think it would be kind of cool, but then again,
that is just me.

I think what I need is to perhaps find some books on electronics or
something.
