Does anyone else make dual tuner cards?

I don't have cable so I am limited to broadcast shows.

I can get a Panasonic 4-head VCR for $50. I have two VCRs of different
vintages now but one is crapping out from excessive use. So I can
replace it with one Panasonic for $50.
I would be willing to pay up to $100 for a dual tuner HDD recorder.
They can keep the DVD - I have enough of those around here to start a
recording studio.
I am beginning to think the time has come to build a computer to do
the task. I assume tuner card come with scheduler software or else it
is pretty much useless.
Has anyone been involved in such a project?
