My experience though 7 years of Remote operating (CW) is that Teamviewer is
very useful.
You Can make a Remote set up without the K3/0 and RemoteRig at a very low cost.
It may be satisfying your needs. I have a description of my set up on my QRZ
page.

The first K3 I built the fans were very quite, but the last one I build was
pretty loud and sold it. I am thinking of getting another if I can find a
quieter fan.

Look for a used RF Concepts or Mirage (pre-MFJ) brick amp that produces
150W with 2W of drive. They are rare, but great amps.
