Hi

PHK has a roughly 6 line code snippet that does a basic PLL. Add two more lines 
to check / clamp the integrator if you wish. That’s 8 lines. If you want a D 
term (to give it an FLL component) add 2 more lines. We’re up to 10 lines. 

It’s just a control loop, not a full GPSDO. There’s not a lot to it.

The code and some magic hardware to run it on is not the key to all this. 
Setting up and spending the time testing and optimizing is.
