Dwight,
I suggest using serial port servers for the SPE, rotors and any other
serial port devices. If you use these along with the RemoteRig boxes,
then you will no longer need to have a PC running on the radio side.
The RemoteRig boxes have two serial port servers built-in, but are both
used for CAT if you use CAT with your Elecraft "Twin" system. If you
don't want to use CAT, then COM1 on the RRC's is available to control
another device. I use Lantronix serial port servers such as the UDS2100
https://www.lantronix.com/products/uds2100/, but there are a lot on the
market.
There are also dedicated boxes from RemoteRig called RC-1216H
http://www.remoterig.com/wp/?page_id=1010 that provides a web interface
for these devices. They are much more expensive that a simple serial
port server and don't provide a redirector to use client software
remotely, but are an "idiot proof" method for people that prefer that
method of control.
Using serial port servers allows you to use any client software for that
device on the control side, including the SPE client.
For any further questions or details, please contact me off list.

I am getting my remote setup.
For hardware at the remote site (home) I am using a K3, Palstar
HF-Auto, SPE Expert 1.3k - FA Amp., Green Heron Products for Rotor
control and their wireless remote boxes for switching antennas, and
one Remoterig 1238. I have all this connected to a PC that is
connected to the internet.
From the control site (away from home) I will use a K3 Mini, another
Remoterig 1238, and my laptop. I am able to control all my antennas
with a client program from GH thru the internet. Last year I was using
a KPA500 and KAT500 and was using Elecraft's client program to control
them.
What I'm wondering is how I can control the HF-Auto and the SPE from
the control site as neither have similar client programs available as
the Elecraft stuff did?
Anyone else with a similar setup?
Thanks Dwight NS9I
