Purchase a computer radio.

WinRadio 303i or e

www.winradio.com

You will love the versatility and performance.

Have fun. And the price is right in your range.

The basic Winradio 303 (without the "professional" demodulator) runs $500 for the internal one, and $600 for the external one, so it's a little out of his target price range unless he can find one on sale.

Personally, I'd avoid the internal ones -

Ten or fifteen years from now, the radio itself should be working fine, but it may be tough to buy a new computer that'll accept a PCI card.

My guess is USB ports and serial ports will be available for quite a few years - even if it means buying an optional card.

A PC controlled radio that is in his price range is the tentec rx-320d.
