[Discuss-gnuradio] tv tuner cards and GNUradio

[Bob Keyes]

Hi, I am new to GNU radio ( but not to Linux or Radio). I want to try to use a 
Tv tuner card as a radio receiver under GNU radio. I don't own any such card at 
the moment, and am wondering which card or chipset is currently the best to use 
under gnu radio.

I am also thinking that I'd like to build a transverter, so I could use this tv 
tuner card for higher bands. Has anyone tried this with a tv tuner card?

Regards,
