Hi Larry,

I thought I explained it before, but I will make another attempt ;-)

RRC-1258MkIIs: This is the set that does the actual *remote control*. It 
provides all audio using the SIP protocol, rig control through CAT, CW 
support (including paddle), some limited relays and a virtual COM port 
(two if you don't need CAT), etc. See 
http://www.remoterig.com/wp/?page_id=1051

Webswitch 1216H or RC-1216H: These are web controlled *RELAYS*. The H 
version is an all rounder that can be used for rotor control, relays to 
control devices, temperature measurement, etc. It has no audio, CW, or 
other rig control functionality, it is purely for device control using 
relays. See: http://www.remoterig.com/wp/?page_id=166
The RC versions are more specialized to control devices, i.e. Acom 
2000a, SPE Expert 1K-FA, KPA500, SteppIR and rotors. See 
http://www.remoterig.com/wp/?page_id=1010

Maybe you got me this time around, hopefully!

73 and happy holidays from Bonita Springs, FL
