Well, feeding it with a 10 MHz is a trivial mod away, as it has a 10 MHz
oscillator.
Logging the time-error and frequency-error messages is trivial, so you
have your phase and frequency detector done, so a PIC/AVR to do the
control-loop and a DAC for steering and you have a nice little GPSDO
with carrier phase measures.

TSA has looked inside my bag, and concluded that what they saw on their
x-ray was just the result of an unusual gathering of harmless stuff.
