Carlos, in principle, yes. Practically it is not so simple. You have the data digitized by the ADC chip present in that box. Now you have to input those digital data into the PC. How ? If the sampling frequency is not too high you could use the (now obsolete) parallel port. Or the USB port. Or a FireWire port. Or an Ethernet port. In any case you have to write the code to handle that flow of data, and to pass them to the SDR program of your choice. Don't expect to find a ready-made SDR program that does that for you, AFAIK there are none. If you want to use Winrad, as an example, you should write an interfacing DLL that contains all the technicalities needed to "talk" with one of those communication ports, and which then will pass the received data to Winrad itself. 73 Alberto I2PHD
