I ordered it at the SDR website.

Here’s a link to some photos of the Finished Product.

Once finished, you plug this into your computer via the sound card and you can tune the band with free software that you use on your computer.

Wiki :
"Mit dem Begriff Software Defined Radio (SDR) beschreibt man das Bestreben, möglichst die gesamte Signalverarbeitung eines Hochfrequenz-Senders oder -Empfängers mit Hilfe anpassbarer Hardware in Software abzubilden. Im engeren Sinn handelt es sich um ein Funktelekommunikationssystem, das eine software-konfigurierbare Plattform zur Modulation und Demodulation und Aufwärts- bzw. Abwärtsmischung eines Signals benutzt."
