Downloads | Linux for Shortwave Listeners | WebSDR | KiwiSDR | Web-888 | PhantomSDR

Become an expert operator of KiwiSDR and WebSDR receivers.

Here are the download links for Skywave Linux. It is available for direct download at SourceForge. It is also on dozens and dozens of torrent trackers. Whichever source you use, be sure to check the downloaded iso file's sha256sum for a match with the value given in the authentication document. I have seen isos for sale by people on Ebay; you can just download it from the internet for free.
