The Psion Wavefinder [1] (old USB product from circa 2001) works with
Linux using OpenDAB [2]. The Changelog for the most recent version of
this suggests DAB+ support has been implemented.

I did some further googling and found this:

Beside the VHF band it also supports L-band, which is used in the Czech
Republic (and Italy). That is good.
They claim to support Linux, but I would first check with them to make
sure it applies to the DAB+ feature as well.
But I still haven't found any console scanning tools. OpenDAB appears to
be a one-off solution for a single piece of hardware...
