Matt,
I'll actually want to be able to control how far I can detect
interference from my carrier, and the carrier I'll be detecting
interference from. Do I have no choice but to cover ~30Mhz at a time?

The RSSI on the motherboard will tell you the power within approx. +/-
15 MHz from your carrier. You can also get a digital RSSI which will
tell you the power within your signal of interest.
