Hi,

regarding audio transfer consider using "RemAud" by DF3CB, a VoIP 
application designed especially for radio remote control over the Internet.

This may be useful if you operate either from the shack or remotely. I recommend  using the WK Demo SW for K1EL keying of the K3. It is far superior to using the CW key in HRD, because the HRD keying is very slow-starting and also difficult to stop. WK Demo works real fast (both start and stop).  When set up correctly you can work real QSK type QSOs.

Then, I use WKRemote to key my K1EL keyer remotely (assuming you have K1EL...The best!!!) and Skype for VOIP. It's not prefect but I have been able to work DX while watching the kids play in the backyard . I'm very busy right now but I'm planning to write a simple white paper on the subject in the near future.
