I'm surprised you prefer arch linux for amateur radio stuff. Hamlib, wsjtx, and fldigi are packaged and in the main repositories on fedora, but the same is not true for arch linux. What software are you using that you find easier with arch linux?

Most important reason is that I haven't actually tried.

Shack laptop is running Arch and a bunch of custom stuff that happened to compile fine on Arch.

Your comment made me check, and even GNURadio and osmosdr is packaged in Fedora. Huh. Time to re-visit that decision :-)

Fedora is THE distro for radio enthusiasts :-)

Those are all available in AUR (source packages / recipes), both latest release and -git versions.
