You can run a very lightweight X Desktop such as LXDE on a super crappy computer.
If you need to access the Internet through a remote computer, you can use SSH to SOCKS5 proxy your local connection through the remote computer. This is super easy to do. I think that Shortwave requires an X display. However, you can run it locally and send your connection through an SSH SOCKS5 proxy.
