I should try that sometime. Any protection needed between the coax that
would go to your receiver to your mic soundcard input? I am using the LF
Engineering L-400B antenna.

Forgot to mention the maximum frequency you will be able to see will be
half the sampling rate of your sound card. So if you have a 48 kHz sound
card, you will be able to see up to 24 kHz on Spectrum Lab's display.
