I think any DVB-T radio using those two chips will work.  As far as I can 
tell, the connector the antenna uses is the only real difference, and, if 
you plan to use the stock antenna, that's no big deal.

There's not a lot of Linux involved.  You need to install rtl_sdr and 
rtl_433, and then configure the weewx sdr driver.  When you are doing that, 
put in the paths requested.

One nice benefit of using SDR is that I am able to get my outdoor 
temperature and humidity from a sensor with much better location rather 
than the one built into my Acurite 5-in-1.
