PiSDR is a custom Raspbian-based Linux distribution image for Raspberry Pi and other SBCs with dozens of Software Defined Radio applications pre-installed. It provides an out-of-the-box bootstrap for SDR projects, supporting radios like RTL-SDR, LimeSDR, Airspy, and PlutoSDR.

Use cases

  • set up a raspberry pi for software defined radio
  • preinstalled gnuradio image for raspberry pi
  • rtl-sdr receiver on a single board computer
  • build an sdr headless receiver node
  • decode ads-b or weather satellites with an sdr
  • quick sdr lab environment without compiling drivers

When to choose

  • you want a ready-made SDR environment on a Raspberry Pi without manual driver and toolchain setup
  • you use supported radios like RTL-SDR, LimeSDR, Airspy, or PlutoSDR
  • you want many SDR tools (GQRX, GNURadio, SDR++, rtl_433) available in one image

When to avoid

  • you need a general-purpose desktop OS and only one SDR tool
  • your radio or SBC model is not on the supported list
  • you need frequent updates or commercial support - it is a single-maintainer project with infrequent releases
