Daniele,
   The Inspire kit is a broadband high gain audio amplifier with a very high
input impedance - generically its a 'whistler receiver'.
Whistler receivers like Inspire are good for listening to whistlers, tweeks,
dawn chorus etc but it would be completely useless for listening to amateur
VLF experiments - its broadband, has no 'bfo' to detect a carrier and would
be difficult to interface to a sound card.
