I came across the following site (https://hem.passagen.se/communication/supertuner.html) using TV tuner as communication receivers. The tuner mentioned is difficult to source now. With the availability of cheap TV cards for the PCs (with built in tv tuner outputting video and audio directly), can the following be done (the tuner will be removed from the PCB and controlled directly with microcontroller/PC using I2C) :
TV Tuner Video Output --> Mixer (with DDS LO) --> 455kHz filter --> Demodulator (FM, AM, CCW, etc) --> Audio.
The main reason for the hack is to allow 1Hz resolution to frequency change. Most tuners only allow 50kHz resolution.
Thanks & regards,
