How To Install Internet Radio Player Shortwave on Ubuntu Linux

Internet Radio Player Shortwave 1.0 released. Here is how to install Radio in Ubuntu Linux. Shortwave helps you to find and listen to internet radio stations.

Shortwave signals have a very long range because of their very good reflection properties. Due to their long range, they can be received almost anywhere in the world. The same applies to Internet radio stations, which can also be received almost anywhere in the world. That’s why we decided to call the project ‘Shortwave’, because internet radio stations and shortwave radio stations share many characteristics.

Shortwave uses radio-browser.info databse. It’s a community database where everybody can add/edit information.
