Skywave Linux v5 is Now on Debian Sid!

Enjoy shortwave radio and overseas broadcasts, no matter where you are. Skywave Linux brings the signals to you. Broadcasting, amateur radio, maritime, and military signals are available at your fingertips.

Skywave Linux is a free and live computing environment you boot from a flash drive on your PC. Start it up, pick a radio server somewhere in the world, and tune in some stations.

Skywave Linux brings you the signals, whether or not you have a big outdoor antenna or can afford an expensive communications receiver. Hundreds and hundreds of volunteer operated radio servers are on the internet, which let you tune the airwaves and pick up broadcasts in excellent locations and on high performance equipment.

If you are into FT-8, PSK-31, JT-65, or other digimodes, you can decode the signals in Skywave Linux. It also has tools for decoding weather satellites, ACARS, and ADS-B signals.

Not only is Skywave Linux a prime system for software defined radio, but also for programming and coding. It has the Neovim editor and support for several programming languages: Python, Lua, Go, and Javascript. It is a great system for Web developers.

Debian Sid is now the base operating system which Skywave Linux builds upon. It is debloated, tuned, and tweaked for speed, so that you get the best possible computing performance. It works nicely on old laptops; it is super fast on a multi core, high spec PC.

For shortwave listening, weather satellite decoding, or airband monitoring, Skywave Linux is the system you want!

Enjoy KiwiSDR shortwave radios independent of your web browser. SuperSDR is a full featured KiwiSDR client which runs on your PC and is included in Skywave Linux.

Skywave Linux is a live boot drive image you use to stream internet radio and also tune live signals. You don't need an expensive radio or big antenna. All you need is a PC and internet access to enjoy top notch performance and access signals from around the world.

Is your local media crappy, censored, and filled with disinformation and propaganda? Break free with the global connectivity you get with Skywave Linux. Enjoy loud, clear, and BS-free broadcasts from far away places. Censors don't matter: this Linux has VPNs and Tor to get you around any of your internet content restrictions.

Skywave Linux 4.4 is releases and on the wires, friends. Yeah, maybe I'm biased because I develop it, but dayum I sure enjoy using SuperSDR. And DirectKiwi. Snd the SDR Map utility. They make it so easy to tune around the bands and find great broadcasts.

You don't need an expensive radio on your desktop, nor do you need a big antenna set up outside your residence. You just need some internet...

Give Skywave Linux a try - you don't even have to modify your PC. It is a boot drive image you can write to a USB stick or boot in a virtual machine. Start it up and find some signals!

Skywave Linux 4.4 (GNOME + i3)

Skywave Linux 4.4 is in the works. Currently I am working on the keybinds, as the keys in i3 don't quite match the GNOME defaults - and many conflict with the hotkeys for SDR and radio streamer apps in Skywave Linux.

When the iso is released, you can just replace your old iso with the new one. You'll be able to switch easily between i3 and GNOME, and the keys will (mostly) work the same way in either session.

Skywave Linux v4.3 Flashback is a special release, offering a retro look and feel. There is the background wallpaper from version 2 and the very nice Gnome Flashback desktop environment. Internally, it has version 4.2 SDR and internet streaming applications, with updates.

Skywave Linux 2.3 Released

Skywave Linux 2.3 is released, available for download via bit torrent: http://linuxtracker.org/index.php?page=torrent-details&id=41cca6cdd7c79c905466f9d0c89c732b05544a6a and from SourceForge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/skywavelinux/ It has updated software packages, a fresh kernel, and a higher gain VGA setting in the rtl-sdr firmware.

Skywave Linux 3.0 is released. This version has a different look, now using the MATE desktop environment. It is efficient and has visual appeal. We're now on the Xanmod Kernel 4.13, which makes for a responsive and stable base system. Audio now starts as a plain PulseAudio system, without plugins, for greater hardware compatibility. More wifi drivers are also included in Skywave Linux 3.0. Multiple desktops are enabled, so users can de-clutter and organize their activities on the system. As to the software defined radio applications, we now have four sources of remote servers: WebSDR, OpenWebRX (KiwiSDR), QtRadio/HPSDR, and RemoteSDRClient (SDRAnywhere). The latter is the newest and connects to shared RFSPACE radios. RTLSDR applications are now moving into new capabilities: simultaneous multichannel monitoring, data logging, and ability to stream audio to shoutcast servers. ACARS and VDL Mode 2 are now decodable, with logging. Bleeding-edge support for ADALM-PLUTO devices has been added. Kodi has received some updates and continues to offer streams from thousands and thousands of sources. Those stations sound great with the dynamics and EQ processing in PulseEffects. Overall, this version of Skywave Linux does more, makes better use of system resources, and is a joy to use.
