1-The K3/0 mini production date has not been announced yet. But hope it isn't too far out.
2-There are several cables that have to be switched for the change over. I need to get the plans for a relay box out of my head and down on paper and built so that I can do it with software and remotely. 3-If I remember correctly there is one parameter to be changed on the Control K3, none on the remote. I have just used software on the Control. I also have the micro PC client that I picked up in Sweden so that all I have at the Control is a headset, the micro (think USB sound dongle with PTT button) and the laptop. Makes for a low profile, but the controls are limited by what software you use. I work away from home on a 7 on/7 off schedule and thought I would use it a lot, but as I work 12 hour shifts I find myself mostly working or sleeping on that week. So I haven't used it in about a year. On Wed, Jul 10, 2013 at 10:17 AM, William Hein <bill.aa...@gmail.com> wrote: > I am looking at the K3-Remote / RemoteRig system.
