I’ll comment briefly about what we’re doing but I don’t want this to morph 
into a discussion about what others may think or wish to do for FD. Remote 
operating is as likely in a disaster scenario as any other-all depends on your 
infrastructure and whether you rely on conventional internet access or other 
networks. Nothing wrong with home operation or solo portable either. Field day 
this year is what you choose to do comfortably and explore options to keep you 
safe. Our setup is designed for near total isolation and no close  contact with 
other operators. Oregon has strict guidelines that we’ll follow-so far we have 
the lowest rate of infection in the country and plan to keep it that way. 
Exploring remote operating will also benefit many hams that may not have access 
to larger antennas or quieter locations well beyond this particular event. If 
you want to know more about our plans I’m happy to discuss that off the 
reflector. 
So-what are options for remote control of the KX3 and KX2?
