Before you begin with the actual installation, please have a quick look at the supported hardware page to make sure you are good to go.

There are a few basic ways of setting up an OpenWebRX receiver which you can choose from. The instructions are different for each method, so please stick to your choice. Picking steps from other instructions will probably not work or improve your results.

When you are done with the basic installation, feel free to continue to the [TODO] configuration guide.

Raspberry Pi SD card images

The most convenient way to set up a Raspberry Pi based system, all you need is a spare SD card. Major disadvantage: No update mechanism, you'll need to start from scratch.

You can browse the available images here.

Package installation (WIP)

We are currently working on an OpenWebRX package repository for the Debian linux distribution. There's also an experimental repository available which gives you access to the latest changes.

Limitations:

  • Still work-in-progress
  • Limited to Debian on x86_64, armv7l and aarch64

Please see the repository homepage for more instructions.

Docker Images

If you are familiar with Docker, this may be the easiest way to go for you. Images are built automatically and published to the docker hub, but it's up to you to pull the latest version.
