I was running Airmail, connected to a virtual port on my PC. This virtual port was bridged over the Internet and forwarded from the distant router to the IP-serial converter. The Ptc-2 modem was connected to the serial port of the converter. I could use all functions of the modem and remote control the transceiver. (38k4 serial Baudrate). Your LP-Bridge sounds very promising - looking forward to all these possibilities when my K3 is here. 73! de Werner OE9FWV -- Free puppies...
