I will actually be interfacing it with a USB joystick controller, no special circuits needed! Although it would be slick to roll my own little microcontroller (or just use an Arduino) to simplify things on the PC end (less inputs, the Arduino would figure out what freq is selected ad spit it out to the PC).
