The Basic Rx board is not what you want for this case. Get the TV RX.
Just pick up a FM dipole antenna (the flexible wire kind) at Radio
Shack or drug store, etc. You'll also need a 75-ohm-to-300-ohm TV
matching transformer to connect the FM dipole to the F-connector (R/S
15-1253C). Total cost of both items is about $5.
