The issue is how to get all of the connections from the K3/0-Mini to the K3. The “Elecraft K3-Remote Owner’s Manual” (Revision D, April 3, 2014) discusses two methods of installing the K3-Remote variants: 1. Via the RemoteRig 1258MKII approach that connects to your personal K3 at the ham shack and a second RemoteRig to the K3-Remote. This is what I’ve done. 2. Using the K3-Remote via a PC through a USB connection. This is meant to provide access to on-line remote Ham rig services such as “Remote Hams’. I have no idea what interface(s) are installed at these sites to their K3s. > > My K3 is in a rack a little distance away from my ideal operating position > and the K3/0 Mini sits nicely on my desk but it seems a bit of a faff to have > to use the two RR boxes connected via an ethernet cable. I don’t know whether the two Remote Rigs would work directly connected through a reverse cable, you’d probably have to connect both to a LAN where both devices would be assigned a local IP address (either static or dynamic).
