And at $550-ish, the TVRX/USRP are underpriced. Thanks Matt! I would
suggest
more realistic pricing on future components. There is little hope of
long term viability,
time for support, upgrades, etc. without sufficient capitalization. I
know that even this
is more than many can afford. Nevetheless, it would be better if Matt
made enough
per board to have a development budget of some sort and new toys to help
us get new
toys. With all of the GPL software, it would be a bargain at much more.
IMHO. Throw tomatoes now please.

The path of least resistance it to buy a USRP with the TVRX
daughterboard. See http://ettus.com
Using radio shack parts, you're going to be limited to the bandwidth
you can fit through a sound card, and then you'll still need a way to
downconvert and filter to something that will fit.
