[Elecraft] K3/0 Question

What about when you are trying to log on from a hotel that requires a log-on
procedure? Most hotels I stay at are set up for wireless and require some
form of procedure. Obviously no problem logging on with my laptop. But I
think one "feature" of RemoteRig is it does not need a PC. Is there a way to
get around this with RemoteRig? I want to set up remote control of my K3 and
the rest of my shack stuff when traveling on business.
73,
N2TK, Tony

The K3/0 via the RemoteRig boxes absolutely -can- power up and down the
remote K3. It uses a pin on the K3 AuxPort that acts the same as pressing
the power button on the K3. 

Powering up the K3/0 powers up the remote K3. And powering off the K3/0
powers off the remote K3. Also, if you lose the internet link, the remote K3
will gracefully power down.
