[Elecraft] Favorite K2 Remote Program?

By my definition, a remote program is one that allows you to use the radio 
from another location, via a radio or Internet link.

If you just want a program to run on the computer next to the radio then 
MixW would be my choice. It supports more data modes than any other 
program, plus SSTV and CW, and has a logging feature that can be used on 
all modes. I'm not a serious contester, but its contest support seems 
pretty good to me.

My own program K2Net provides a remote K2 front panel that can be used 
across the Internet. However it is not, and is never likely to, do all the 
things TRX Manager can, especially as I have somewhat lost interest in 
writing software for radio hams following the abuse I received trying to 
stick up for commercial software developers (see the blog on my website if 
you're interested.)
