Okay Wayne, I see. ;-)) That's a nice approach as the Joe Average user might not fully understand what is going on with the RemoteRig solution (I know as I've done a lot of support among German users when the product first got popular overhere, hi).
So I simply misunderstood you (thought there would be a "special" controller as for the Yaesu solution which is not needed here). Thanks for the quick clarification! :-)) 73, Olli - DH8BQA ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wayne Burdick" <[email protected]> To: "Oliver Dröse" <[email protected]> Cc: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, September 21, 2011 10:02 PM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 and Remoterig On Sep 21, 2011, at 12:53 PM, Oliver Dröse wrote: > But what I do not understand (maybe my problem as a non-native English > speaker) is why "additonal details will be provided when the RemoteRig > boxes become available"?

For example, many many not realize that the microphone audio, keyer paddle, and receive audio are all routed through these boxes, not the radio. This is a different way of operating, but necessary to provide the proper signal conditioning and transmission across a network. There will also be some "fine print" associated with the K3 as used with Remote Rig. At least with the first firmware release, which will probably be about 99% of the final implementation. I'll have those details later. 73, Wayne N6KR ----- eMail ist virenfrei.
