PCI FM Receiver?
hi,
i have been looking for an FM receiver that will pick up an audio transmission between 170-180MHz and pipe it into the input of my machine's soundcard. at the moment, i am looking at the ICOM PCR1000, but i am really quite averse to investing that much money in this little experiment. it struck me - perhaps there is a PCI slot card available that will act as an FM receiver? does anybody know of such a thing? i think you get FM receivers packaged with TV-in cards, but i don't suppose they will support the waveband i'm looking at. also, does anyone have any comment on alternative avenues i might follow? i have considered building my own receiver, but the time investment would probably not make the saving worthwhile (the PCR1000 is about £350), but if anyone could suggest a receiver module that would likely do what i'm after with minimal further design work, i'd like to hear about it. thanks for your time, ben mitch |
