Brandon gave me about an hour on the phone, and we got all the settings just right. I can now operate remotely using RemoteRig and the K3/0 to my K3/100. It works --- with a couple of quirks.
Quirk 1--- if you use the Heil ProSet Elite iC (made specially for Icom,) the jumper JMP1 in the control box has to be in. Other Heil mikes require jumper out. I figured that out after Brandon got me going. I have another Heil Proset that is not the special Icom version which I was using when Brandon was talking me through the setup. I later inadvertently switched to the iC version and nothing worked again, until I put the jumper back on. Quirk 2 --- I keep finding that I lose comms between the "control" and the remote "radio" box periodically. I can only get it back by rebooting routers. THAT one worries me. 2 days in a row, when I went to bed, everything worked. When I got up the next morning, turning on the K3/0 did not bring up the K3. I couldn't get it working until I rebooted the remote and the local routers. Perhaps this is a function of my LAN setup. I have a primary router where the internet comes in, and a downstream router to extend the wifi to other parts of the house. I am running the K3 from the primary router, and the K3/0 from the downstream router to simulate true remote ops --- it is actually in my daughter's upstairs bedroom. It works fine until it doesn't work, and I have no idea why that happens. Obviously port forwarding is setup right or it wouldn't work at all. In any event, I thought the info on the Heil ProSet Elite "iC" version might save somebody out there a lot of grief. If anyone has suggestions on Quirk 2, I am all ears. 73 de Brian W3BW -- 70 is the new 40. Brian F.
