Havent done the sums as yet ..just got a price from the suppliers for the
stv video chip for a quanity of 50 @$9.52 US which i think is quite
reasonable....Not sure what the pcb will cost ...
The soldering of the stv chip for a newbie i wouldnt recommend as its
surface mount but the othet components would be ok....
