[Elecraft] KPA1500 Client/Server Software

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

The KPA1500 Remote s/w, which should be on our website later this week, supports 
both a local operation via direct connection via USB or ethernet to the amp. 
This s/w also supports client/server operation when there is a computer running 
the K3Remote s/w at each end. (with the same user interface.)

Stay tuned! :-)

73,
