  Strange question I am sure, but please bare with me.
  
  I like to build a lot of my own gear, allows me to learn new

Kevin,

You may find the information at
http://app-rpt.qrvc.com/usbsoundfob.html helpful in your design.  This
page talks about using one the cheap USB fobs as a repeater/remote
base/autopatch controller with the Asterisk PBX ...

Kevin,

An article was posted on eham.net last year that my interest you.

http://www.eham.net/articles/14023

This describes a simple interface using a small USB hub, a USB sound 
card and a USB to serial converter.  This could probably be 
disassembled and repackaged into one small box.

 I have so far been using a soundcard and direct connection to my TS-
480S/AT, with a small interface.
 Now I want to go a little further and build a slightly better one, 
but I want to build one with a usb connection so it makes a quick 
changeover.
 I have looked through Google with little success, so I am asking 
does anyone know where one could find information on building a USB 
sound w/interface?
 If not I will have to stick with my current interface.
 
 Thanks and A Merry Christmas/Season Greetings from Sunny NZ.
