[Elecraft] Remoteing with the K3 Mini and the 1238 Twins

[Chris Tate - N6WM]

Not sure about the Palstar but the SPE should be fairly easily controlled via its USB interface, So I would suggest a small and inexpensive PC like an intel NUC at the remote site that will open up a number of advanced features that will be difficult to tether over an Internet connection.

Ill be giving a presentation on contesting via Remote at Contest Academy in Visalia and am knee deep in writing material for this  right now..  but Dwight if you would like to chat offline about it I would be happy to do a knowledge share with you.

I am getting my remote setup.

For hardware at the remote site (home) I am using a K3, Palstar HF-Auto, SPE Expert 1.3k - FA Amp., Green Heron Products for Rotor control and their wireless remote boxes for switching antennas, and one Remoterig 1238. I have all this connected to a PC that is connected to the internet.

 From the control site (away from home) I will use a K3 Mini, another Remoterig 1238, and my laptop. I am able to control all my antennas with a client program from GH thru the internet. Last year I was using a
KPA500 and KAT500 and was using Elecraft's client program to control them.

What I'm wondering is how I can control the HF-Auto and the SPE from the control site as neither have similar client programs available as the Elecraft stuff did?

Anyone else with a similar setup?

Thanks Dwight NS9I
