I'll parrot Frank here and advocate using Python with Scipy for
computing and Matplotlib for plotting. I use these tools all the time
to help work with signals and develop for GNU Radio. These have
completely replaced Matlab for me with GNU Radio to take care of the
communications toolbox end of things.
