[Elecraft] Remote Rig without local K3 ?

[K8TB]

Jim,

     If one K3 is at the remote site, you can easily run it using the 
RemoteTRig and HRD. I was doing that for quite a few years. Once you get 
your second K3, and have that at your house, you can continue to run the 
remote K3 the same way, or have the local K3 control it. If you never 
plan to actually need to operate the 2nd K3, it would be cheaper to buy 
the K3/0.

My excuse? I have to buy the K3/0, as local K3 is being taken over by in 
shack QRM from K8AJ !
