Remote Radio Station Control

Randy, K7AGE has posted a video on YouTube (which can be viewed below) describing how he remotely controls his amateur radio station.

In his YouTube description, Randy says:

Operating my station remotely. I use three pieces of software.

First is TRX-Manager to control the radio. See my video on TRX-Manager.

Second, remote desktop software. This allows me to control the radio computer from a remote computer. I use Logmein.com free program to manage and setup the connection between the two computers.

Third, Skype to connect the audio. I have RigBlaster Pro to interface the computer to the radio.

I really like the remote desktop, as I can run RTTY and PSK software on the radio computer that has the audio connection to the TS-2000. When operating in these modes, Skype is only providing audio for monitoring functions.

It all works very well and provides my radio connection when I am away from home. I also have AC power switch so that I turn on the radio PC when needed so that I don't need to leave it running all the time.

Have fun remotely.
