Bob,
That seems to confirm what I thought. Does anyone have any information on
this protocol? It would be great to get some specs even if they are
preliminary and/or incomplete - sure beats reverse engineering the thing,
especially since I only have one K3 :)

Hi Elecraft list,
I have read about the new K3 remote protocol (that's supported natively in
the latest firmwares of the K3), and I want to implement my own remote
control solution. However I haven't been able to find any documentation on
the remote protocol anywhere (implemented in Linux with
Thomas,
If you are referring to the recent support for RemoteRig, the
description of that function can be found at the Elecraft website -
search on RemoteRig. Either the RemoteRig, or a communications link
to connect 2 K3s (the local K3 controls the remote K3) is what is
needed. What is
Don,
I was under the impression that a new protocol had been implemented in the
firmware, providing better performance and features for remote control
applications compared to the existing command set from the K3 Programmer's
Reference.
The approach of continuously polling all values and
There is no new protocol that I am aware of, just the RemoteRig support
implementation.

So the new REMOTE mode of the K3 uses the normal K3 commands from the
Programmer's Reference to talk to the remote K3? I was sure I'd seen
somewhere that a better protocol had been devised for this.
Can anyone with such a setup verify if that's the case, possibly by
snooping on the link?
This is

REMOTE-RIG SUPPORT:
One K3 can now directly control another, with one acting as nothing
but a front panel. This remote rig mode provides a nearly perfect
emulation of the remote K3's display and controls. (Previously, front
