[Elecraft] K3/0 Question

[bwruble at gmail.com]

Never mind. I get it. I had already assumed I'd be buying the RemoteRig pair along with the K3/0.  So if everybody agrees that:

K3/0 to RemoteRig to Internet
Internet to RemoteRig to K3/100

leads to complete remote control, including power down and power up, then I am ready to buy as soon as the mini comes out. 

Thanks,

Brian
