Is there a way to put the KAT500 in bypass when on certain bands? Use case is SteppIR on AN1 and auto tracking, and HQ antenna on ANT2 that requires tune adjustment and memories. KAT500 is getting band/QRG telemetry via cat from radio. Thanks in advance.. Chris N6WM

This will require some knowledge of vpn and/or port forwarding to handle remotely. The new flex remote software does not use VPN and dynamically configures UPNP enabled routers, thus there will be a bit of additional tweaking and knowledge needed to accomplish this. ~Chris N6WM
