It depends on how much of the video signal you need to be able to monitor
and adjust. For example, if you want to see the sync pulses, all 525 scan
lines, the color burst and the chroma signals at their 3.58MHz, you won't be
able to do that with a typical PC capture card. Of course, you'll need a
suitable RF demodulator.
Personally, I'd use an oscilloscope. I got an excellent 100MHz dual-beam
Tetronix off eBay for $150.
