radio/airwaves *nix?

hey there, new to the forums here.

long story short, i have interests in both HAM radio and *nix OS's and want to start a project that will combine the two. so, the question is:

are there any *nix flavors or other distros that were specifically designed for radio/airwave communications, or something similar? my google-fu is apparently weak, as i haven't been able to find anything about it.

i would even settle for distros that are highly compatible with sound equipment, maybe commonly used by radio stations, etc.? i'm pretty overwhelmed by the plethora of irrelevant info i've had to sift through.
