An easy way of broadcasting radio around you (looking for feedback)
The project identifies as "Your Raspberry Pi FM network". It uses a fork of the well-known PiFmRds as a backend to stream audio on FM radio. It allows the control of multiple pi units with a central server, that can also be temporarly hosted on google cloud shell or github codespaces.

BotWaveApr 2026 · botwave.dpip.lol · ▲2Hi HN! I'm the author and maintainer of BotWave, a piece of software that lets people owning a Raspberry Pi (Zero to 4) broadcast on FM radio over a relatively small range. It also supports building a network of Raspberry Pis connected to a central server to manage them all. Disclaimer: I already know that Raspberry Pis produce a ton of harmonics, and that broadcasting on FM may be illegal depending on your country. It is not meant to be misused. PS: I already posted about it about 8 months ago, but since then it has become significantly more powerful, documented, and upgraded.
PIrateRF – Turn a $20 Raspberry Pi Zero into a 12-mode RF transmitterFeb 2026 · github.com · ▲33I built a software-defined radio transmission platform that runs on a Raspberry Pi Zero W. It spawns its own WiFi hotspot and serves a web UI — connect from any device and you have a portable RF signal generator with 12 transmission modes: FM broadcasting with RDS, FT8, RTTY, FSK, POCSAG paging, Morse code, SSTV image transmission, voice cloning via live mic, spectrum painting, IQ replay, carrier wave, and frequency sweeps. Everything runs through a browser interface. Upload audio files, type messages, configure frequencies, and transmit. The Pi's GPIO pin does the actual RF generation via…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
